Well. I finally have my M.B. running. I have been slowly eliminating possibilities but the breakthrough was thanks to a comment made by John Rooth in 4wd Monthly,s Bush Mechanic's Challenge 2 while working on his Pajeros fuel pump 'In the old days you would put a jerry can on the roof & run a ho...

The adaptor plate does not change the carby position/orientation. It merely acts to alter the bolt positions ie: adaptor bolts to manifold and carby using different bolt positions. & yes it does "funnell" from the larger webber to the smaller manifold (slight offset in funnell). The it...

Hey, Pony tail - you had better click on Colins profile buttton, you will find he has his tongue firmly planted in his cheek when he knocks his own trade - from what I have seen in Colins posts, he is one of the trustworthy many who are shot down by the actions of the dodgy/greedy/unscrupulous few.....

Have a look at www.por15.com.au their 'Fire Seal' should repair your manifold efectively. Your alternative is to have extractors made up - why bother when you will have to have extractors or manifold custom fitted for the turbo. Fire seal will cost around $30.00 - extractors over $150.00.

115 back to 110 ain't so bad... used to drive a Honda TN350 (like a Carry trayback but only 2cyls air cooled rear eng). It would make 105Km/h flat out on the flat but that same truck that robbed you of 5Km/h would have left the TN350 doin' 60Km/h. I sadly miss that little truck - it was amazing what...

I hope to have the info ready to email this weekend I thank you all for your patience.

Once again check out www.garrmax.com.au and if you're concerned by heat ask them if a viton seal would be apropriate.

Try www.garrmax.com.au. I can't guarantee their help but I know they helped the previous owner of my MB out with bearings for the F8B - they found Matiz bearings were suitable. Go figure!
