Solex C40 Linkage

[kremlingazette]

Hello All,

I am in the depths of overhauling a 2.0 Fiat twin cam, It eventually will be fitted into my Lada Niva. At present its stripped down to the block and is undergoing a thorough cleanout ready for a mild overhaul. Its not a high specification build, and I am working to a low budget.


It was never intended to tune the Fiat engine, however I could not resist a pair of Solex C40 PHH carbs. I have recently secured a manifold from fellow lada friend Neil Chowney, so suitable linkage is next on my wish list.


Can anyone direct me to a company who can supply linkage for the Solex's ?


Webers & Dellortos are well catered for, but Solex are another matter.


Any help would be appreciated


Thank You

Ivan

Wouldn't walk far to try and find anything for Solex carbs. Get a Weber DCOE one and re-jig it to fit. It is quite simply the BEST twin-carb linkage EVER produced.

Thanks Guy,


If you say the DCOE linkage can be jigged to fit, then thats good enough for me.


The search continues..
