Weber 32/36 carb, keep it?

[67westy]

I'm going to be changing the engine in the van in the next week or two and have picked up a 1600 twinport to go in. It came with a weber 32/36 attached. Does this run well or should I be looking to change it to something else?

Also will be needing a new exhaust at the same time, presuming I keep the Weber would a standard exhaust be ok?

Cheers

Twin choke is OK as long as it's set up right.
A freer flowing exhaust would bring an improvement over the stock as well.

Thanks Sparkywig, I'm hoping it will not be far out in terms of jets as it was a running engine so hopefully we'll be ok. I'll have to have a look into exhaust options.

I had a single quiet pack on mine, and that went OK.
