Hi,
Drivability is relative, but I would get someone who knows solexes to help
jet the car at a dyno.
(maybe the local Z crowd can help as some Z's ran 3 twin solexes).
I would think that properly jetted, it should run fine. If you have a 3.7
diff you could go to a 3.88 it would be easier to find and cheaper. Don't
froget to change the speedo sprocket on the transmission so your speedo
reads correctly . Consider headers and a larger exhaust dia.
Don't make the change unless you have the jets done properly, probably 1/2
day labour & dyno time.
Regards,
Howard Fletcher (3 solex 2000's)

I have a pair of 44mm Mikunis with 180 air jets and 140 mains. I also have
a
completely stock 2L. If I dont change either the cam or the rear end,
what
will be the drivability of my 2L? I know, from Dean, that the best way to
do
it is to put in a 4.11 or higher rear end. That I may do but for now, what
would be my drivability issues with an otherwise stock 2L? Would this be
of
help at higher RPM?
