Hi all, does anyone know what type of single carb intake manifolds exist for the B16 engines? anything aluminum out there?
I have a B16 that I have been rebuilding that is nearing completion and I would like to put a more efficient fuel delivery system on it. I have been thinking
of twin HIF 38 SUs but a single HIF 44 (or 6) might be a good alternative if there is a side draft type manifold out there that could be modified to accept
it.
Another project, another question, I also have a B20b from a 69 1800s. The original carbs (Stromberg I think?) are gone and I have a set of HS6 carbs I would like to use. These are from an early to mid 60s 1800 - My question is should I replace the needles for the new application (B20b) perhaps jets or springs too or will jet adjustment be enough?

TIA & Cheers!
OK
