Okkher i went to a wreckers they have no mini carby, cause mine is rooted? Well maybe it is, lots people says so,
But Bloke pulled out 1.75" Austin Kimberly Carby?

Is this a straight whack onto my 1.5" setup that i have now? Or should i just not care, as i do not now anyways, but it was just an idea :?:

yeah it'll go on, 1 3/4 have 4 bolts, your manifold only has 2, but they line up diagonally with 2 of the 1 3/4 carb ones. It'd be worth grinding the port of the manifold out to match the size of the carb, but otherwise it'd be good crap. Kimberly is 2.5l and has 2 carbs, so an 1 3/4 off one of them should be about right for a mini

I have a Kimberley (I spell it like that because that's the way we spell our daughter's name :) ) Thrust bearing in my mini now. Really good strong one with a huge flat face on it not like the new shithouse ones you get now.

I'm sure this has little to nothing to do with this thread, but you know. :roll:

I'll point out `the new shithouse ones' you speak of are made in Japan. I got 3 days out of one... :evil:
Now, I only buy the RHP ones with `made in England' on them. They are still good and last for years. 8)
