will this carb fit on a nova inlet?
Weber 32/36 DGAV carb, jetted for a 1.6.
Came off my 1.6 manta which ran fine before removal. Has choke.
and if i get a 1200/1400 inlet and open the ports up will it work on a gsi engine?
many t's in advance

anyone?
It would work but not give top power. The inlet manifold does not match the inlet ports as they are different shape. You'd also need adaper plate. I'd stick with the injection if I was you or 40's if you wanted to go the carb way.
yeah i agree with garyc, best off leaving the fuel injection.
sorry forgot to mention its on t40's at the moment but they need rejetting and setting up correctly , ive got a spare manifold lying around and was going to match the ports to the head, just after a cheaper alternative to getting it on the road lol as i dont want it sat around this year again
Id just setup the twin 40s.
yeah i would just set them up, the money it would cost to source another manifold etc.
Seconded. Not sure why your wanting to change from the twin 40's. Any reason???Quote:

yeah im after some (would have had some if someone hadnt scammed me) i cant wait to get some on mine, just dropped a 1300 in my shell
just wanting to get her on the road this summer for minimum fuss then worry about carb jetting and everything til winter - i dont want to miss another summer of salooning guess i'll ring a local place and see if they can do a collection service etc does anyone know if day insurance covers cars with no mot etc?
dont see why it wont work mate, especially as its got manual choke, minimum hassles.
as long as you matched the manifold ports not far off using a gsi gasket for similarity, and the inlet was of a suitable size as to not restrict the airflow, woulda thought it would run fine, and sound prety good too. go for it i say.
all thats needed is the ports working, and possibly a plate manufacturing for the carbside to sit on the inlet, which u could make out of mdf or something for a template. throttle cable u might be able to use the manta one, and choke, im sure youll figure something out :thumb:
