I need to mount my Carb approved Weber to my 2tc manifolt since my kit diddnt come with an adapter, and I can't seem to find one the right size. I can do this in 2 different ways. I can create a spacer out of some 6011 aluminum. I have a stick of .75”x3”x12'. The other way would be using a spare intake I have from a 78 and hogging out the inside where the carb normally bolts to, and inserting a square (that bolts to carb) then welding. Well look at my ridiculous paint diagram and pics.

Shaded cut out is of the weber carb's base.

The hard way. don't Laugh!:

or The spacer:

Which way would you do it? And why?

You've got the right idea for neatness. I'd go for option 2 for simplicity. You may still need to machine the original manifold in case any

part of it obscures the Webber throats.

they are actually pretty close. I would adjust the flow whithin the spacer to keep things flowing smoothly. It would be about 5-7mm or adjusting within the 20mm high spacer. Shouldnt be a problem.

I couldnt wait so I started. I chose to make the spacer. Check out my rides post to see

I think a spacer is a good start, you can always try option one if it doesnt work how you want.

Why not just buy an adapter cheap enough.

I forgot about this post. I would buy an adapter but this carb isn’t made anymore. I heard they stopped making them in the early 80’s. I can find Weber adapters, but not for this carb. I just ended up making this:

 

don't mind the one on the left. I just need to put it on now.
