LeMans fuel bowls

Hi

Best address is this:

You can bend the crossover yourself if you have
a tool for bending brakelines it´s easy. Mine was
damaged from the transport from the US when
i ordered it. I had my lines bent at work because
they have the better tools there.

You mean if you buy the LE Mans bowls and put them on your
stock carb that the original Shelby lines will fit?
Yes! All you need is the fuel bowls with floats the gas linea and gaskets.
Then you should be good. Buy a whole gasket kit. You will need for your
accelerator pump and other stuff.

Hi,
I am not an expert on carbs but I think you will have a compatibility problem
between a plain 600cfm, 1850? and Le Mans bowls. It has a secondary metering plate instead of a block with replaceable jets. This means that the screws are different and the connection tube must be shorter as well.

Hmm......maybe it´s best if he calls Carl and he will
tell him what he needs. I also don´t know. If you compare
the http://www.cobranda.com/715cfmhoca.html with a regular
Carb it does not look like there are different. But i would not
bet my car on it.

I converted a 1850 (Model 4160) to LeMans bowels and bent my own transfer tube. The difference in length is the width of one metering block. You may also have to use pipe thread to flare nut adapters instead of the original compression fittings for the transfer tube. The look is still much the same as the original.

 

I have converted two GT390 carbs to Lemans bowls...no problems. If you are using the 1850 carbs then a shorter fuel tranfer tube is required as mentioned above.
