mikuni 30 mm carbs/big block briggs

[keokeboy]

has anyone attempted to install mikuni carbs on their briggs v twins. after all the trick speed parts you installed how about dependable carbs . the factory carb sucks especially the 2 barrels on the 27'and up

I agree the factory carb is lacking. A twin Mikuni would be the ultimate setup, but there is no room for them. I've seen single Mikuni carb adapted on, but I'm not sold on the idea of a single carb on a 2 cylinder, lack of tuning. I will stay with a 2 barrel.

I am working on tuning a stock big block carb(35hp) to run on a 23hp. The venturi is much bigger. Initial testing is looking very good, especially for the price(yet to be announced).

Frank,
Did this end up working out?

Yes,

Although I have gone with a single Mikuni on the dragster because its even bigger...
