M10 sidedraft Solex 40 PHH dual twin-choke carburettors

[1975alpina2002]

What do you guys think about the M10 sidedraft Solex 40 PHH dual twin-choke carburettors on my 1075 bmw 2002? with a 292 Degree cam and M10 performance pistons?

Will the dual carbs help me gain more HP? More than the weber?

Where is the best website I can buy a good dual carb?

you can probably go to the manufacturer's site. i know weber has its own carb site so its possible solex does too.

The 40 PHH Solex's were OE for the 2002ti and from what ive heard are actually a pretty good carb. Weber is another option used on some of the higher spec Alpina cars.

That cam with these carbs should go well together. A 300 or 304 is said to be the best match though but a 292 should make it more driveable around town.

WIll this work for my 2002?

is the 02 going to be a DD? i will go with dual carbs if you are trying to spend some money

the carb that you posted on the ebay link yes it will work but with a bmw manifold 2 barrels are better than one... so it supposed to work better

like i said if you are trying to spend some money go with 2 webers 304 cam headers with some other mods

A single side draft lynx manifold for a 2002 will run you some big dollars. You'd be better off going with the twin side drafts.
