Please note that this question comes from someone that has little understanding of what it would take to re-jet and adjust a set of carbs for the 225 odd-fire....BUT...
Has anybody thought about what it might take to adapt a set of weber side-draught carbs (4 Brl total) to the trusty 225. I always had great luck with Webers, even with dual carbs on various VW projects. Once they were adjusted (sync-ed) I never had any problems. I think building the manifold and linkage would be the least of my problems. I think it would look pretty cool sitting in there with one carb to each side. And don't side draughts do pretty well with off angle running conditions?
Crazy thought? Perhaps.
