Stovebolt carb

[weightlifter99]

Does anyone know of details of this carb? It is a Holley but can't find much detail in the description on it. Anyone know if this will work also?

Good price on it also if it would work.

this carb also bolts right up to type 4 manifold ..... but it doesn't fit inside the frame really .. personally i havent worked with yet

It does seem to have quite the extra baggage hanging off the sides but some could be removed I'm sure and discarded such as the "stovebolt" carb. But my setup is working and dang good also. This bike is now a blast to ride!

it is a very good price for a carb for anyone wanting to buy one and try it ....best price ive seen for one ...good searching

Remember though, they close for a spell on the 25th, they are doing some site work and the like. he told me it was good to order early, they will be down for a few weeks at least. Summer break I guess.

I am doing a part run for a regulator for this suzuki project, I am getting them out of the shop asap. we worked on the parts misunderstanding and he apologized, but I promised a running gs650 by the weekend, he will have it. I LOVE to work on bikes, but I am crystyalline in nature on what I do, how I bill, and what to expect, I document progress with pics on big jobs, and always stick to an estimate. He said they will pay the parts, but its coming back to them. The guy did not know I had talked over my parts policy with his wife, and she got on him, but!!!!....I agreed to bill them for the parts, but I might want to make sure I get a lien.

Yea his ol lady straightened him out and he called to apologize. I had told him I would make it right,but felt like a biker welfare program for a second there.

My carb is in, now to make a plate work.

I used 1/8 " stell to make mine mainly because its all I had. Laid out the adapter gasket on one side and cut the center hole, then reversed it and laid down the plenum gasket and made the corresponding 4 bolt holes. Actually worked out pretty good for me that way. Just say n.

I did the same thing but in my case I had a piece of aluminum.
