1.9l dual carb intake

[okiejohn]

just wondering if anyone has one of the old dual carb intakes laying around for the 1.9 they are not going to use as ogts wont produce them anymore--thanks

Interesting....was this for downdrafts, or side drafts?

I have a couple of Solex's around, maybe a cool duel downdraft Solex setup would be interesting! And surely unique!

there was just a set of duel 40 solexes with irmsher intakes and air box for sale on German e-bay last week. Think it went for around 350 if I'm not mistaken.

forgot to mention, you're best bet for intakes is on german e-bay.As they are far and few here in the states, (trust me!!) i searched for a long time around here and people just wont part with them!! They do show up quite often on german e-bay tho, there is a set or 2 on there right now. Good luck, they get snatched up real quick!

i HAVE A set of cannons with side draft 40s dcoe that I might sell.

I also have a set of twin Cannon intakes with dual Weber 40 DCOE's that have been sitting on my shelf for a decade. I doubt that I'll use them because I can't bring myself to cut into a heaterbox.

I'd really like to trade them for a single webber sidedraft intake set up.

Anyone interested?

do you have to cut the heater box to run dual carbs on a 1.9?
the guy at ogts said they used to sell a dual carb intake

i am new at trying to rebuild an opel i had a 71 opel gt in highschool and rolled smashed the roof to the doors bad wreck ahhh the joys of youth huh anyway thanks for all you input

john some extra info might make this easyer to deal with .
1 which opel do you want it for
2 what do you want twin side draft carbs (2X dcoe or dcom) or down draft twin choke compound (32/36 weber , 36/36 dgas ) or twin downdraft weber (ida,idf)

the reason i ask is the first needs the heater box on a gt to be modified in most cases but not on an ascona,1900,manta,kadett
and the hood needs to be modified to fit twin downdraft carbs on a gt
and you need just the right carb with a twin choke compound

and if you are new to rebuilding an opel engine if would be a good idea to read

it covers an engine rebuild by one of the members and is full of the info needed to do it
