Might have to get one for the 149  ;) ;D

Should bolt on a twin red should it not ?

DN2168

Red carby's have a bigger base I think Pete, I'll have a play, might need some adaptors made up.

FCRB26

If they are the same centres ill just cut em off and re weld them.

Or I can make a whole manifold? I have to do one for a supercharger on a 186 for a mate eaton commodore style.

Really gotta start concentrating on getting some of my own projects finished but i love doing these little ones especially when they work

Good one Dean, you haven't had much luck with the greys and red makes things go faster  ;)

Pete I just measured up the 2 manifolds & they are different lengths between where the carbies bolt onto them. Have to look at getting another adaptor made up, might try a different idea next time.

Finally got the 149 fired up today ( with oil pressure), a big thanks to Pedro & Pete for offering suggestions to help get the initial oil pressure up. Hoping to get the car back together over the weekend so it can be regoed next week.....Tassie here we come.

This may be a dumb question, but will the Gilmer system fit? There's no room up front for one in my FC (although the 202 isn't snug against the firewall, either)

Id say there will be some chop chop chopping going on.

Too easy mate, good to have a chat and glad to see you got the problem solved. 8)

It's very sexy........going to have to rebuild the rest of the car now to match it  :P ;D.

THANKS, Pete, once again you have excelled  :-*.

Not the best look for the FC. Died yesterday on the way home from work. Carby was full of gunk (someone never checked it).
