Has Any One Got Twin Su's Carbs?

[ke30Rolla myles]

hey i am going to be putting my new engine in this weekend and a going to be putting twin SU's carbs on.

but apparently you can not buy the brackets for K engines so i got told that i will have to build a bracket to conect the acc cable to the carbs.

 

if you have SU's can you please send in a pic of you brackets so i got a rough idea how to make 1 for my SU's

 

or even better and diagrams

 

 

thanks heaps Myles

yes i mean how the cable is secured to the SU's normally you have to make a bracket but with the pic you send there is no bracket??

and yes you can get a bracket in Google type in SU's and there is a place that makes them thanks Myles.

the outa coating of the cable is attaches to a steel bracket wich is connected to the block but the actual cable that hooks to the carbs has a a small bolt that you tighten that sqaushes the cable tightly to the bracket on the su ...ill try and draw sumthin up for you to show you what i mean

all mine has is like a little ball bearing it looks like something has be be cliped onto it.

i think i might have to make a bracket like this?

[brendan]

ahhh yeah the little ball bearing should be ablle to screw out and just put you nut and bolt threw there and tighten it up with the gas cable threw it

[KE ping it real]

I think he means fuel line

can any one else help me out ?

You do need a bracket like the one you've pictured. It's designed to have a vertical shaft clipped onto the ball. Otherwise you might be able to modify the cable wheel off an old carb. It will take a bit of messing around, but you could probably mount it on the end of either carb so you don't have to muck with that centre linkage.
