Zenith 36IV
« on: March 29, 2007, 17:56:36 »
I have a 2.25 petrol (5MB) which currently has a webber carb (type unknown) fitted.  I want to fit the original Zenith 36IV to put the LR back to 'normal' and complement the Turner uprated cylinder head I am going to order.

I cannot seem to find anywhere that stocks original (Not dubious copy) Zenith Carbs - Am I being a bit daft?  :oops:

Also - any suggestions ona less restrictive manifold/exhaust?

You need to go to a proper carb retailer. This place sells them.

Minimad,

Thanks for the offer - Iv also got an old one amoungst my bits and bobs - but Iv gone and ordered a shiny new bit!!  Saves my bungled 'refurb' efforts and should give plenty years of service.

 :wink:

Still working on an exhaust tho...

I do not believe the zenith would complement an uprated (stage 1 or 2) head.  

I would advice talking to ACR regarding the head. they also do the downpipe and exhaust (back box) to suit an uprated head (as well as the head).

If you have a bit of left over cash from that i would suggest getting the SU HS6 carb from them.  All these combined are worth every penny, just getting 1 part is not such a benefit.
