For '74 L26...

I'm having a hell of a time with the old carbs and intake. I have an unknown set of SU carbs mounted on the engine. They are the round-top type with external float bowl. I also have a rebuilt set of 1974 flat tops... Would be willing to trade for or buy a 4BBL intake and/or header to replace the current intake/exhaust system.

Anyone with parts for sale or trade, please e-mail me. mechalchuk@charleshays.net or MSN/ICQ me.. same addy, but ICQ is 30807143

Thanks

Hey Goose Check out Dave at www.arizonazcar.com He makes a 4 bbl conversion set up and has the kits to mount it up as well as the right carbs for this set up. Also has headers. :devious:

Thanks Frank. I've seen his stuff, it looks pretty decent. I'm looking for something a little cheaper though. The car itself isn't in that great of shape. I just want to get it running, and I have a Holley for it.

I'm still looking for a second hand 4BBL intake and header. Will trade two sets of SU carbs, including an intake and exhaust for discount.

I've seen a few used 4BBL intakes go on Ebay for under $100 bucks canadian. I'm looking in that ballpark.

i would buy the rebuild video from z therapy and some rebuild kits there are inexpensive ones from bv for like 25 a pair before I put the 4 barrel on it , money better spend there , just my 2 pennies

Thanks for the input, but my intake manifold and fuel lines comign in have been screwed with a lot by the last owner. The hot water system for the carbs has rotted out, and the exhaust is starting to rust through. I really do need a new intake and exhaust maniolds. I think a 4BBL woul dbe the easiest route to take.. All I would need to do is mount, build linkage, tune and replace the existing fuel line. Then I have a nice clean looking setup without any smog controls and what not.
