Carbs and Air cleaners

Todd -Todd -Charlotte, NC
Another - very rookie question. How do I now what size and type carbs I have. It is a 1600CC motor built by Vintage back in 2000. I asked - after I found the original owner name - what the build sheet looked like and they could not find it. I did NOT take the air cleaners off yet. Will I be able to see size and make once I do? I am wanting to buy a clean set of air cleaners and not sure what size, etc.

Should I just take the car to autozone and see what they say?

Doubt Advance Auto or Autozone could find the engine - it won't be in their computer. Take off the current air cleaners and the carbs will be stamped with make and model (Dell, Weber, Solex, Bosal, Kadron). You'll end up ordering parts from place like CB Performance or CIP1. Avoid stuff marked EMPI - mostly low quality Chinese stuff. Fisher Buggies in Tampa is good (kinda) local source of parts too.
