Outer Limits 4x4 Board

just wondering how youd fix a cracked carby?
im doing an engine rebuild and found the carby was cracked.
im not too sure if you can weld or braze it?
would quicksteel do the job or should i just get a new carby?
cheers

pics?

nah i have none at the moment sorry.
its cracked because 1 of the 4 mounting bolts were done up to tight.
its cracked all the way through but there is a small piece holding it on.

when the carby is bolted down it has a small amount of play.i was more worried about the air leak.

Possible to weld it but it'd be near on impossible to braze unless it is a special non aluminium carby. Maybe time to upgrade to a bigger one

im rebuilding it for a bloke he just wants the standard carby.i suggested a holley or webber conversion but he says he doesnt want to pay $400 + and have the hassle of tuning it all the time or somethin?

hopefully it will be as simple as welding it up.
ill have a crack at it and if it still leaks ill have to get another.
cheers

Should be able to get a standard carby for about $40 at a wrecker that's the price I paid last time anyways.

sweeeet.
was thinkin a fair bit more actually looking at ebay.
have a few mates working at wreckers so hopefully get a good deal.
thanks heaps champ
