I am pulling my engine and trans to deal with some minor leaks and to perform some maintenance. I have been giving some thought relative to the PMO carburetors endorsed by Randall Aase. Presently I have a 2.7 CIS that serves me well. I am looking for input positive or negative. Thanks in advance.

Chris, thanks for the response. I know they are pricey and that is not an issue. As far as emissions are concerned that is not a problem either. Anchorage has a program that allows for exemptions for cars not utilized between the months of September and April. I was hoping some of you guys could give me some technical feedback + or - relative to the PMO carbs on a 2.7CIS.

I have Webers on my 2.7L hotrod motor. If money wasn't an issue I would have PMOs. CW on the internet from those that have used them is that the PMOs are very nice.
Be advised that there is a learning curve to be climbed when setting up/tuning them. Looking over an expert's shoulder would ease this considerably.
Since I didn't have this luxury (just books,which are minimal help), it took me bout a year to learn the dance (literally, on a 914, ya gotta walk around the car to get at each bank).
A Syncrometer and a float guage are required tooling. They are NOT bolt em' on and go.
You will get a decent hp gain and that lovely sound.
