which bike carbs for a pinto

i am currently running a 2.1 ltr pinto with a 285 cam megajolt and twin 40 dhla "n"s
and i am having problems with a flat spot when i open the throttle quickly
i have been told that the "n" means the carbs came off a emission controled car probably a alfa and i will never get them right.
i have tried a few different jets and ignition mapps but i am coming to the idea it would be better to change them and get some bike carbs
so what would you recomend or what are you ussing
thanks
dave

Im using ZZR1100 carbs. Seem to be a cheaper option.

ZX6Rs would be a good choice.

I'm using them on a 2.0 Zetec.

carb spacing

did you split the carbs and respace them or does the manifold come in to suite the standard spacing of the carbs as i plan to make my own manifold and i would prefer to split the carbs if possable as it would make the manifold easier to make
any one got any photos of the carbs installed
cheers

Mine are split and respaced. I didn't bother with a proper manifold - just used the standard bike carb rubbers bolted to a piece of 5mm ali plate cut to shape.
