Whaddaya reckon this will fetch? Looks very nice all polished up.
What other sorts of stuff would one need if they were to put it straight on their 1100?

Doc this ones for u

Looks pretty- plenty of bling-bling..

Lot of time left yet- anything could happen. Maybe will go for silly money.

No I dunno what a new one's worth... before you ask.

I'd mail him and ask for a real photo, this seems like a general one of any weber (he doesnt even mention trumpets in his listing).

Yeah make sure the pic is of the real one that is for sale and not a "demo model". I have seen a Weber 45 on a manifold that is way less bling bling than this one for $600.

If it is under $300 it's a relative bargain I'd say.

You'll need:
Manifold ~$160 for a redline one or similar (if you can find one!)
Air Filter ~$?? for something that fits without hacking firewall well we are talking Unobtainium...
Linkage kit ~$100?
Probably a rebuild kit $60
Misc number of jets and air correction jets ~$20 per jet (1 jet per side)
Tune up knowhow (This will cost money and/or beer)

That said, it is probably the ultimate carb to put in any car, esp ph@t 1300's

I know cause Doc's putting one in for me!

EDIT: looks like it is going to go for silly money, already $200 and still lots of days to go...

northern mini parts has a dual weber set up for about $1200
pricey but sure would look sweet.

Umm, I meant the guy on eBay selling the Weber - he claims he has RACE gaskets.

The point I'm making is a gasket is a gasket is a gasket. I have heard of competition head gaskets, but calling a carby gasket a RACE part sounds ricey. Like calling a 5" exhaust tip a race part!

He's probably talking about the soft `O-ring' mount between carb & manifold.

Hardly a race only part these days. Some people reckon they're essential....

My Dellorto gets by with a normal gasket, but if it was a Weber I'd fit one.

Ha ha I like 'racing gaskets'. Well I got two on my car, does that make it go faster? If so then that's the best $7 I ever spent!

Definitely 20kw there Anto (10kw per gasket)

Fully siiick maaate.

...i was offered a 2nd hand split-45-weber setup (including manifolds and linkage, no filters or ram tubes though) for $600 today..... is that a good deal? cos im thinking its a bargain.... it will go on my 1380

I guess it's comparatively cheap- but they are harder to set up, and don't really go much (any?) better than a single 45 on a race manifold these days.

Race manifold - are you referring to the 6 inch?? cos i am not interested in bulkhead mods...

Kinda makes me think - the split setup was off a cross flow head, so the manifold wont fit anyway..... i guess i'll stick with a single 45 (or just upgrade to crossflow aswell as split 45's)

Now HOW can i get this money stone to bleed???
