I have given up on Dell 45's and decided to go fuel injection using a carb body for the throttle body.
Anyone have a pair of junk 40 or 44 IDF's

No one have any?
Scarce items....Why can you not use the Dels????
Robert,
I do have a set of Weber 40 IDFs, but they're vintage Italian models.
I couldn't let them go for any less than $200.00 + shipping.
Have you tried the classifieds on the Samba?

Thanks but I think I need 44's to allow room for bigger heads
OTOH, 40's would work for now if the price is right.

How big is your motor? The 40s would work in place of a 45mm carb, because you remove all the carb crap that's in the way, leaving only the throttle plate. Throttle bodies flow more air for a given size than do carburetors.
Understood about removing the venturis to yield a bigger bore. In fact one can bore the body to throttle plate ID to remove more restriction
My current engine is a 2332 with a 120 cam so all over by 6000 RPM. I am limited by the 40 x 35 self ported heads, so a gutted 40 carb body acting as a TB will be fine.
I am in Thailand and the cost doubles by the time I import anything so better heads will need to be hand carried over. When this happens I think that the 40's may be a bit restrictive but only time will tell. OTOH there is no drawback to using 44's now with room to grow into bigger heads
My other thought is to use bike TB's but carbs make the linkage easy.

I have a single 44IDF that was originally part of a pair. Let me know if you are interested.
