DGV i understand is manual
DGEV i understand is electric choke

THE DFV SERIES
The DFV Series offers the same increased performance, economy, drivability and excellent values does the DGV Series. The basic design of the DFV carbs is that of the DGV Series. but as a mirror image, with the primary and secondary barrel position reversed in the body While the throttle lever in the DFV rotates in a clockwise motion it rotates counter clockwise in the DGV. The DFV also features a power valve circuit to facilitate low vacuum running conditions-perfect for long duration, high output situations. You get the same value, parts availability and durability as with the DGV in a carburetor suited for your needs.

You know, when I installed my DGAV, I was looking at the way the ports matched up on the stock manifold.
I was thinking that maybe the DFV would have been a better port match...
Have a look at my post on DGVs for a whole heap of info, including a rebuilding guide.
