EA81 Carb Swap/de-emissioning the carb/intake

Featured Replies

Thanks for responding.

The manifolds can be swapped with a little bit of "adjustment" in a few places. Haven't done it myself but have seen working examples, so it can be done.

They should be very similar, as the basic design of the carb changed little. The EA81 will have less "junk" to remove.

actually after looking at EA81 and EA82 side by side today at work, the EA82 carb has less stuff to take off then the EA81..
