ebay will have one cheaper most likely.

Yeah I've seen that. did you find it good then?

It's the Weber/Dellorto bible as far as I'm concerned!
If you wanna play with these carbs I reckon you need this book.

Ok, I'll get it.

I've got a few good weber books, but need something specific to the dellorto.

but the sort of stuff it wont tell you is progression hole data etc and this has a big consideration as they come from cars made with airboxes designed for them etc and the two are a package. you need to know this, as it has a big effect on drivability.

alfa series ones are the worst offenders here.

your the second person who told me to stay away from alfa sourced dellortos, the first didn't know why though lol.

Can you suggest any books/manuals that WILL be of help then?

Basically I've picked up a pair of 40s very cheap. If I can't find decent info on them I'll use them for DIY throttle bodies.
