Capri Technical Forum:

Hi, Nope no carbs fitted, manifold has now been identified as a Mk1 grp1 escort manifold. Unfortunatley i listed the manifold on ebay as i have just started a 24v cosssy conversion. I was told what the manifold was 20mins before the auction ended. Didnt really want to let it go but it has paid for m...

Thanks for the tip-off.

HeHe i thought that question may get asked. Its just a bit of fun really, I am building a mad max style car. I have a 2.1 injection pinto engine going in and i have fed the air intake down from above the engine. So i needed a scoop to feed the intake. I just went a bit overboard with the size of the...

Yeah sorry bout the picture size.

Thats a thought about the 25 out of 100, wonder where the other 99 ended up?

It looks conpletely unused.

As soon as i get hold of a couple of 38 dgas carbs, it will get chucked on my project pinto for a trial.

Watch this space.

Thank you Capri-Dave.

Hi all.

I have a bonnet scoop to fit which is on the large side.

It is 8.5 inches high.

What are the laws on visability and bonnet vents? Am i likely to get pulled for reduced visability?

Cheers

Ok folks, The manifold has arrived!!!! It has written on it - 2x DGAS or DFIS. The following is stamped on the underside - GTW 100 025 - Does this mean anything to anyone? Could some one just explain to me how to post pictures :? - Are there instructions somewhere on the forum? Then i can post the p...

Am still waiting for the manifold, but if you go to ebay and search this listing number you should be able to see it. 230148235469 I have asked loads of people about this manifold and no-one seems to have seen or heard of it before. Could it possibly be a one off? Knowing my luck it probably didnt w...

Picked it up off ebay, not arrived yet but should be here in a couple of days.

Will post pictures and give more details on arrival.

Hopefully will get it up and running quickly,
anyone got any old 38DGAS carbs laying about?

Hi all, Does anyone know where i can get hold of wide tyres? I recently x-packed my capri and my 7j's have disappeared somewhere under the new arches. I love the look of my starmags but they just dont come anywhere near filling the arches. So, my plan was to fit 25mm spacers and get some 215 or wide...

Hi all, I have just got hold of, what i beleive to be unique, manifold to fit 2 x 38dgas carbs to a pinto. I intend to run this with 2 x 32/36 DGAV carbs (Standard pinto units). Does anyone know of ideas or problems associated with linking 2 of these carbs, i think the biggest problem is going to be...
