Why It Matters
The EPC 34 is EMPI's modern take on the classic Weber 34 ICT. Compared with the 34 ICT it replaces, it gives improved throttle response, cleaner fuel delivery and better all-around drivability at a friendlier price, and parts interchange.
Installation Notes
- Order two carburetors for a complete dual-carb installation.
- Each carburetor is test-run and adjusted at EMPI.
- Use the appropriate manifolds for your engine (Type 4 manifolds on Bus, Type 4 and 914).
