Red 6 Triple SUs

Post by Errol62 »

I bought another set of SU carbs today. They are at Echuca. I don’t suppose there is anyone local willing to collect them for me and hold until Fins on the River in June? This set is on the wrong manifold, and ad says they are 1 1/2”, but they look like 1 3/4”, and they appear to be more complete than the set I have, with all the choke and throttle linkages. They also come with a set of the VK injected style headers, 6 into 3, into 1, which probably wont fit the FB, and anyway I’m not a fan of tubular headers. But then I don’t know if the warnerford manifold will fit the X2 headers.

Do you know any of the Galeas ? Tony runs the Museum there and may either pick them up or let the seller drop them off and keep them at the museum for you ???
When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.
