PriceyZed Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I have 4, 40mm carbs up for grabs. They all come with filter assembly's, linkage kit and 2 gasket kits. After talking to a few blokes on here I've decided to go with a set of 45mm carbs. Will post photos ASAP $600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cozza Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Just out of interest, what motor are you building to need 45's over 40's? Power, torque, rev range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PriceyZed Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 Looking more for torque. Going by the advice of others to be honest. I'm not planning on anything too drastic with the L28 as I want to do an RB conversion in the long run. But even just a warm L28 I've been advised against the 40mm carbs. Any other input is more than welcome. If I don't need the 45's id rather not go through the hassle of selling these and trying to find 45mm carbs...

Retro Z Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 They arent matching carbs. And the linkages only suit dual carb setups for 4 cylinders, so you would need to buy an additional matching carb anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agno Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 For the record 40mm carbs are fine... More than fine actually. They run out of puff a little once you go past 5500 RPM but unless you are a track day warrior I wouldn't worry or be concerned, just be happy with the increased low down torque 40s give you compared to 45s.

PriceyZed Posted April 24, 2016 Author Share Posted April 24, 2016 Might keep 2 then and offload the a pair with the manifold and linkages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
