LostWater Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Looks like I finally scored a VW bus with a kennedy adapter already on it. A few years ago I found a site that sold the Weber carb adapters seperately for like $35. What site is it? I have a great running EA-81 that I am going to put in my camper bus using this kit. I also have two weber carbs with plates for VW's, obviously, I need the plates for the subie motor. Still have many parts and cars if anybody interested.

carfreak85 Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Bowwow in Seattle sells them. There are about 3 other places that I know sell them, but the names don't come to mind right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostWater Posted April 14, 2005 Author Share Posted April 14, 2005 I was planning on pulling the manifold from a carb'd ea-82 wagon that I have on the farm and getting that cleaned up a little. It has bigger passages than the EA-81 manifold and it bolts right onto the EA-81 engine. So I will need a weber adapter to EA-82 carb manifold. Don't want to spend lots of money on a custom manifold for only 20 hp overall gain (stock type 4 VW is 67, I figure EA-81 with Weber and EA-82 manifold should get 85-95 hp) If I were putting the cash out for a EJ-25, then I would certainly spend more money on breathing.

Brumby Boy Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 If you know how to weld you could build it yourself fairly cheaply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
