i got these carbs yesterday, and am quite curious about them. they are mikuni/solex carbs. as near as i can tell they are from a '74 RT104 GT with an 18RG. not sure if 40 or 44mm yet, have to pull them off yet.

 

the manifold is interesting as it is modified. the guy i got them off thought it was to suit a 2L escort, but i'm not so sure. i have trawled through a few gasket books and it looks as though the manifold is for a 2T. can anyone verify? are 2T and 2TG inlet manifold gaskets different?

the manifold is a bit bizare. looks as though it was welded then had a heap of epoxy added for strengthening or something.

another pic

thinking of maybe procuring a twin sidedraft manifold for a K series and trialling them on my car at a later date. that is providing that the mikunis share the same base pattern as webers.

yes 2T and 2T-G manifold gaskets are different. I'll go get a snap of my 2T manifold face when I get a chance.

cool, thanks

From what i can see, its not a 2t-g this it the manifold i just took off mine.

 

Good luck finding what it came off.

2Ts are similar to that however there is only 1 water gallery going into the center. I also feel the bolts are on less of an angle.

heres a shitty camera phone picture for you to marvel over. I'll get the good camera out later if you need something better

:D looks very much like mine.

 

2ts and 2tgs are quite different.

maybe i should just stuff a 2t into my ke10 or something. :D

lol is it really worth it?? do you want a blown 2T block and good head?

why not? a healthy NA 2/3t should go well in a light ke10. i can see heaps of further potential.

 

what do you want for your 2t? what is wrong with the bottom end? hmm, i need space.

nah it just goes to the shops and back. in 5 seconds. including a browse of the magazine stand :greenbounce:

 

wtf is that turbo? the dump and the wastegate are HUUUUGE

g0t boost? :greenbounce:

 

that crazy
