Advice Please

Hi Guys,

I have a 1.4 SR bottom end with a Mk1 Astra 1.3 ported and polished head & inlet manifold. It has a carb on it from a tranist or something at the mo, but would like to change this to something a little more vauxhall to get a induction kit or bolt on filter to fit.

Anyone got any ideas as to what to fit, as I do not really want to change the inlet manifold as it has been ported and polished.

Cheers

fit a 1.3sr carb,, or get a webber 32/34 carb but make sure its jetted for a 1.3!

and never heard of a carb off a transit on a nova!!

I wasn't sure about this eaither? that is what the guy told me when i bought it?

The carb has 'webber' fitted on it, but I am not sure what it is from, if I post a pic, could someone offer advice?

Thanks

Chris

a webber from a transit??? thsi is getting a bit wierd!

old transits used to have carbs too you know...

you want something a bit more "vauxhall" but youre willing to buy a weber... which is not vauxhall. They merely made a part that motormanufacturers adapted their inlets to fit.... big deal, dont be so narrow minded and gay

Thats right the old 2litre pinto transits had single choke webers fitted i got given one before by a lad saying he had it on his 13 Srlol

Hi Guys

Thanks for the info, I wanted to get a different carb as I am having trouble getting a k&n to fit, and also this one has the choke removed, making it difficult to start. I thought something more standard or something that is more popular may be better.

Thanks guys

Yeah theres the pierburg 2e3 off the 13's and 14's the auto choke goes then it wont start 'cos its too hot.......get a 32/34.....it says Weber on it:thumb: lol

I'll bet it's a Weber 36TL, I had one as a genuine single-choke Weber conversion kit on my 1.2. Apparently Weber supplied this same carb to loads of different models...
