Which is very interesting to me..
The 948 cc single H1 carb engine in my '59 Morris 1000 is spec'd at 32 bhp.

The extra ~23 bhp in the 1098 can't be due to the increase in capacity alone.

Ny Question: How much difference does the dual carbs make to a 948 cc motor?

Any Bug-i guys care to tell me the answer... Huh! huh?
