Thanks, that helps. It seems most people use the DGAV or the DGEV ( I had it wrong in my original post) for the slant six. Thanks |

Here is what Chris from Proline told me. "The DFEV is a modified carb, usually with some sore of Idle stop solenoid for new cars and smaller motors. A DGEV is a standard progressive with electric choke, DGV= manual choke, DGAV = Water choke- DCNVH's are a newer style carb and are synchronis performance carbs- they are great carbs, but they do not carry adapters for them to bolt on anything. All the set-ups using the DCNV's are custom machined intakes. x2 and x3 just means how many are in the kit." Thanks Chris |
