When I did Flame, she would not run decent, or idle right without them, put
them in, and smooth as silk! She had the round slide carbs at that time.

Dave,

I have a 69 Ambo with the 700 heads. I took the inserts out because I heard
that I didn't need them. The bike has run fine for the three years that I
have had the bike running but I think that I might put them back in to see
if there is a change in the bike's performance.

Any thoughts as to what I might expect? I figure with the narrower diameter
there will be a little faster airflow. Other than that I don't know what to
expect.

Regards...Ian

Thanks for the picture.The two v-700 engines I have did not have these
inserts;since they had stuck cyls.can't say how they ran without them?I put
a Amb.eng.in the 68 just to get it on the road.I would like to know just
how
 much difference these inserts make?

I am new to the loopframe list but not to loopframe Guzzis.My daily rider
is
a 72Eldo.I have had since new,a keeper needless to say.A few years back
picked up a v-700 that came with an extra engine.When I took the heads
off(these are the small valve ones)noticed the intake ports are much
larger
 
 than the Eldo.Amb.heads, does anyone know why?I know the difference in
these
heads but a large intake port with small valves and the same 29mm carbs
doesn't make sense? Thanks,Dave >
