Weber nomenclature gets pretty wierd. Both are 28mm (primary bore)/36mm (secondary bore) 2-barrel carbs with progressive mechanical linkage. I am not personally familiar with the carbs, but the difference I come up with right off is DGV is manual choke, DFAV is auto choke. D = doppio, double, two-barrel. F = (maybe) a carb designed for a Ford or Ferrari application. A = automatic choke. G = ??????? V = carburetor with a power valve. Haynes Manual #393 and HPBooks #774 are my Weber sources, I expect at least the Haynes is still available. I run a 32-36 DGAV, sold as a conversion for Volvo B18/B20, which works very well on my '69 1.5 l 95.
