Thanks

No twin carbs would be a set, there will be a left and a right you cant just use 2 single carbs.

well.....with some slight mod's a regular Hs2 could be used. i mean the main thing is the float and the carb throttle linkage.

It would take a fair bit f either adapting regular parts or making your own tho.

twin Webber's....on a 998. Are you MAD!

[fikus01]

dont take this as me being harsh but i've said it before and im going to say it again!!

twin webbers = overkill!! a single dcoe webber is still overkill!! twin 1 1/2" su's on a 998 = OVERKILL!! a single 1 3/4" su = overkill!!

basic jist is unless u want possibly less power and fuel economy stick with twin 1 1/4" carbs or a single 1 1/2" ( or hif 38) carb!!

im not saying it cant be done but scientifically and engineering wise there are no gains to having these masses of extra capacity in carbs, especially not on an otherwise standard 998 or even a modified one!!!!

a single 1 1/2" su will not even restrict power til 90bhp or there abouts!!

most 1275's need not have any bigger that this carb!! a standard mg is rated at 72bhp from factory!!
