depends what mixer your running
if your using impco or a impco clone you need a b2 converter
if your using a crappy oldschool mixer ring you just need any puss converter
check the outlet size on the gas feed to the mixer matches 1" for impco gear and 5/8(i think) for mixer rings

lol great advice there, is it a complex or simple you need, what mixer is it using?
Rather than just throw some names at you it would help if we knew what you needed.

well i need evrything for a gas conversion, will not be running petrol so a duel fuel solenid is not required, its for my buggy build and needs to be cheap. can buy the mixer for about 90 bux which goes on the end of the throttle body, still waiting for a part number, as for the tank its goin to be a fork bottle cause they r cheap

Impco model and either 200 or 225 mixer are about as cheap as you can get, heaps at the wreckers and most common on commo V6's.

If using impco gear get a model E convertor.
They are good for constant 325hp or 500hp for up to 30 seconds before freezing over.
I happen to have 1 for sale too. PM if interested...
