He's a great guy and almost all he does is British carbs.  I bought two NOS
Zenith WIPs from him and he's very respected. 

By the way, does anyone know specifics between WIP-2 and WIP-3.  I read that
the WIP-3 has an extra adjustment called the "air regulation control".  The
book I'm reading said the screw for this adjustment is locatd in the float
chamber cover.  Does this mean I need to take the top of the carbs off to
adjust this?  I'm assuming this would solve my stalling under a load
problem.  I drove the car yesterday and had to keep it at 4000 RPMs to keep
it from stalling.

By the way the book I'm reading is great.  It's called "Tuning Zenith
Carburetters" by David Harris.  Anyone have any recommendations on other
carb books?

Fellow 'piners,

Ian and I need to send our twin Zeniths off for a complete rebuild. I'm
aware of Burlen Fuel Systems in England but is there an American source we
could use?
