simply, are my twin solex 32/34 now to small for my 1911 with mild cam, these carbs were on a 2.0 type 25 so i thought they would work ok but my van is getting hot at 3.200 revs iam seeing 110c on the f**king temp gauge, timing is right at about max 30 deg btdc @ 3000rpm, valves spot on. so could the carbs be too small?
anyone running twin solex on there cam'd t4's let me know if you had the same trouble
