1  For Sale and Wanted / Parts For Sale / Triple 1 3/4 SU Carbys For FE FC Holden Grey Motor on: February 16, 2010, 06:03:43 PM
I have a rare combination of Warneford Design Manifold and 1 and 3/4 inch SU's to fit a Holden FE FC (and others) Grey Motor complete with fuel rail and the throttle linkages for the FE and FC.

Air filter mounts (rear plates only) are included.

Warneford Design Manifold is designed to clear the rear firewall of the FE and FC. The Warneford Design Manifold is ready to bolt straight on. You and will just need normal tuning (set spring rates and jets) to suit your engine.

I have these advertised this on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Triple-1-3-4-SU-Carbys-For-FE-FC-Holden-Grey-Motor_W0QQitemZ170446189602QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Car_Parts_Accessories?hash=item27af627422 and this Item may be withdrawn from sale at anytime if sold.

As you can see from the photo's the carby's look great, have very little engine time and are in very good used condition.

A bit of polish and TLC will bring these up up beautifully.


A Firm offer (via this forum) over $700 will secure this for you otherwise bid on Ebay.

Electropolishing is the way to go if you want mirror reflection.

Polishing stainless steel (or any other metal) is a process of progressive mechanical abrasion.

The goal of the abrasion (polishing) is to cut finer and finer scratches into the surface until they are invisble to the naked eye.

"Electro polishing is a selective electrochemical metal removal process, exactly the reverse of plating. Simply stated, the electropolishing process results in the simultaneuos smoothing, leveling, and brightening of stainless steel material by adding low-voltage electric current to a flowing chemical solution.

When the proper combination of electrolyte, current/voltage temperature relationship is attained, the high points of the surface irregularities, or high current density areas, are selectively removed at a greater rate than the remainder of the surface.

Electropolishing selectively removes surface flaws and embedded impurities, as well as high points in the surface layer.

An electropolished surface is essentially equipotentialized. Local corrosive cells cannot be set up, because galvanic differences due to stress in metal surfaces have been eliminated.

Electropolishing passivates stainless steel to a greater extent than any other process. It applies an invisible protective oxide fill on the surface which imparts a condition of maximum resistance to attack and corrosion.

With surface impurities removed, and a level, smooth surface that has been brightened by electropolishing, the coefficient of friction is greatly lowered. A smooth surface eliminates turbulence and the erosive action which generates particulates. The bright smooth surface is bacteriologically cleaner than any known method of cleaning or polishing."

I know this is an old thread but I'd love some pictures of these models.

Where can I find that info?
