Hi list, does anyone know if this seems right? I have new 40mm Mikuni/solex
carbs on my stroker 1600 engine, so it is now a 2L size.

In attempting to tune the carbs, I have gotten advice from a place that
sells the mikuni parts. He suggested that the 40mm carb is a bit small for
the 2L motor, and so I should first change my venturi from 32mm size (which
is in the carbs now) to a 36mm size. I told him I want this car to be a
daily driver and not a race car, so am looking for nice "driveability", and
not tuned for racing. Anyone have experience with 40mm Mikuni's on a 2L size
engine, and if so, do you know if 36mm venturi seems right? 

Thanks,
