need some help ID'ing a vintage carb; no markings whatsoever, kind of looks like the lines of an SU; larger physically than a 2" SU. photos here at my Reno Craigslist ad:
That doesn't look like any SU carb I've ever seen but then you could always ask the current company that supports SU carbs
What is the bore diameter? It looks like either a watercraft or motorcycle carb - possibly a prototype. Nothing I've seen before. It is a "su style" in that it uses a sliding piston, not a diaphragm like a Stromberg or a Keihin. Looks like from a liquid cooled engine,and with a mechanical choke
It looks a bit like this one:
Hitachi flat top off a Nissan engine.
looks like Steve W. nailed it! tnx guys, barry carson city, nv
Your estimated pricing wasn't too far off either.
The Z car restoration community looks to be your best bet.
Ha! I haven't seen a reference to those for a while. I had a Racer Brown 3/4 cam in my 1275 MG Midget. It was good for hillclimbs but wasn't enough at Lime Rock Park. But then, neither was the rest of the car...
the 2 big ones on the side - including the bent one, would appear to be coolant (heating) lines.
Not even CLOSE.
That's it - definitely. I was looking for a picture of the japanese SU and couldn't find it.
So f****ng what, bend double and blow yerself.
