You'd want a pretty serious spec'd kent engine to flow enough to require twin 45mm's. Twin 40's would better suit I would have thought..

Ok thanks , it's all standard at the moment with some extractors on the way , and I'm also looking at getting the cam ground , with this done what would be options for side draft carbs ??

The standard downdraught will handle mild mods with a bit of tweeking, other wise a single 40 with the right size tubes and jets should do it. Lynx and Redline manifolds are available for that combo.

Find a 1600 2 barrel down draft intake manifold (GT type)and fit a Cortina or escort pinto weber carb , it would work on a stock to quite lumpy motors. Once your bored with the pinto carb swap it out for a 38/38dgas , direct swap with some jetting etc and more fun !

Go with the 40 dcoe, I recently fitted 45 webers to my 1600 kent which has had mild work done and it became sluggish and had heaps of lag down low
