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

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

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.

Gilmer belt drive kit arrived yesterday Grin

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)

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