Suzisport kit for Weber onto Vitara
Posted: Mon Nov 08, 2004 7:41 pm
Today I received a Suzisport fitting kit listed in their catalogue for Holley 180 and Weber 32/36 .
The kit will only fit a Weber 32/36 DGV with several modifications.
1 The air cleaner is the incorrect shape for a Weber. I can cut some material from the aircleaner hole to make it fit but the overlaps are pretty small in places.
2 the accelerator cable bracket is completely wrong. It appears that the Holley opens the same way as the Mikuni Solex, but MOST 32/36 DGVs are the opposite ie the cablecomes in from the left. To fit the bracket I will have to grind a lot out of between the bolt holes, and bend it 90 degrees upward.
3 The most common Weber in Oz is the 32/36 from a Cortina 2 litre, and that is the one I have. Reversed ones were apparently fitted to Renaults, and we all know how common they are.
I haven't yet checked the actual adaptor plate , but hopefully SOMETHING is right.
Just so you know.
