Racer Walsh or Esslinger Engineering. Both should also have the intake manifolds as well.

Got sidedraft carb on the Midget and duals on the 74 Midget. The duals were a pain to sync but once done have gave no problems. Maurice

guess they would be side draft carbs

a few years ago i found an intake, that would allow me to run motor cycle carbs on my 2.3.

Then i picked up a set of flat slide racing carbs off a suzuki race bike.

they ran great and a neat sound but i was still running out of carb before top end and motor would go lean.

then made the switch to fuel injection

My body shop guy has a airplane with a 1.8 Subaru car motor in it. He is running 2 Honda 600 car carbs. [Honda car that had a 600cc air cooled motor in it.

He has one that is restored and a rust free body. I would love to get that one. He has talked of putting a shaft drive motorcycle motor in it hooked to a MG Midget rearend. Maurice
