solex are kinda like the poor cousin of side draughts, not sure what they are worth, maybe a couple of hundred, plus $100 for the manifold, although i may be out of touch.
I have always found them to be a reasonable carb, just not greatly sort after, if you know what I mean.
:popcorn: waits to see what others think.

They're great Carbs!
The only bummer is that they are orphans. The only place I've heard that you can by parts for them is wolf creek racing in the US.

i bought a pair of these in 44mm for $400ish late last year, that included a new a15 manifold though. Was told they don't fall out of tune as easily as dellortos?

Would be real keen on those linkages if you would want to seperate
