Monaro Twin Carby Assembly

Post by Rosie2012 »

Hi , I have almost finished retoring my 1951 MM which was equiped with a Monaro twin carby. I bought the car virtually in pieces and it came with several boxes of bits which were from at least two other vehicles. The cables to the carby were not in place so I have no idea how they attached. Can anyone provide me with a picture or a few clues as to how the cables ran.
Cheers

Not a Monaro set, but, does anyone recognise the dark coloured air filter assembly? Possibly either from a Canadian car or from NZ?

Export AC oilbath airfilter

have one on my nz car


edit: scratch that i just realised your picture didnt load on my phone.

Looks like a pressed steel unit to fit a standard filter to twin carbs? (though why you would bother freeing up the exhaust and intake just to put that back on im not sure)

I have a ford 100e twin carb manifold fitted to my minor, so you may find it was part of a kit for an old speedboat
