Can anyone recommend a good place to get my Dellorto DHLA carbs overhauled?

Great, thanks! Easily the best price I've come across so far.

Did you find a difference afterwards? I'm going to get mine refurbed, then rolling road setup.

More for peace of mind - I guess mine were last fully overhauled in 1994, and they've been on and off the car in the last few years so probably well overdue.

I was very please with the results, i've got an Italian weber (not the spanish remake) and the body was quite knackered on it, he found another body 'out back' and swapped all my bits over - including replacing the throttle spindle as it was well worn (this being the original reason for getting it overhauled) and rebushing where the spindle goes through.

My carb is used on my race car and although i've not gained any HP (already tuned for max power on WOT) i have gained a more controlled thottle response at low RPM as the butterflies are no longer wobbling.
