does anyone here know where i can pick up a decent Weber 34ADM carby preferably from an XE or XG and spacer plates so i can fit it to my blue 202? is there anything i need to watch out for when fitting this carby to my engine?
Most wreckers should be able to sort you out..... Not sure on the XG but most people seem to be using XE/XF, but the XG might be the same, I know squat about fords.
You will need all the carby spacers off the ford, and the air cleaner aswell.
Redline make the adapters and can be ordered through repco etc.
You will also need to use your spaces from the varajet, to give the throttle enough room.
You will also need to either make up a custom bracket for the accelerater cable, or mod the ford one to fit on the holden peddle.
Its an idea to rebuild the weber or get it rebuilt professionaly to gain the most benefits.
Theirs a bit of dicking around, but if you have the time it seems like a worth while conversion, that I still wish I did.
will i need to tune it after i fit the new carby?
goes without saying mate. not hard though. if you borrow someones workshop manual and photocopy the pages or just buy one it'll tell you all the goodies. also, try and get one with a fuel cut solenoid that is working as i hear they are about $150. could be wrong though
This is good site to watch.I found it informative as I have been researching a lot lately on such matters such as you talk about.
