Re: black smoke after engine swap?????????????
Thanks Twiss, I will give it one more try, probably next saturday, and then give up. I have used both SU and Weber carbs in the past on minis and fast fords. I have found a weber conversion 32/36 dgav carb kit from the states for about £220 delivered. I have looked on this site at the SU conversion,...

Re: black smoke after engine swap?????????????
Thanks guys, i have been out there all day and have made the following discoveries. On removal of the engine i managed to bend not only the quarter circular throttle cable guide to end stop, but also on the same shaft, i bent the end stop.

Re: 413 engine and gearbox change - as one
Hi,
I decided to split the engine and box, and now have the new engine in and bolted up. The only things i need to do to get it running are, find a carb to inlet manifold gasket, but these seem hard to come by unless you by the complete headset, any ideas?
