36hp Vintage speed motors--who's running what--


Been doing some research on old speed kits from down under and noticed that a few guys are going to run on the salts as part of the 36hp challenge. And this has got me curious on what you guys are running for vintage speed 36hp motors? Okrasa dual port kit?? A Judson or Pepco super charger?? Or do you have something rare, special or a one off job?

--So if you are into hoping up the 36hp motor and got the time post up a picture with a few words feel free.-- :cool:

Hope to hear from ya'

Sure thing there boss, as soon as i get done refurbishing the Monaro 36hp kit ill post up some pics. For now I'm a bit busy tracking down some parts for a set of 356 A brakes for a german gent.

Maybe ill post a pic of them to if i get the chance.

P.S. the carb remanufacturer said that they were the worst one he had seen, like the stored under water.:lol:

In the picture?? Doubt it is Okrasa, wrong linkage, carbs, and filters for that kit.

Or were you referring to something else?

In the late '50s the Automotive Carburettor Co. did a twin SU kit for the 36 HP VW. They quoted 0 to 50 MPH in 14.2 secs. Price - (Pounds) 43 /12 /6. There's one for all you young-uns to ponder!

Cheers, Greg

I made custom manifolds for the 28pics, linkage and copper fuel & oil lines.

Are there any other twin carb 36hp running around?

Not sure about OZ but in the states and europa there are some dual carb 36ers.

Nice job on the work, looks really clean and the balance tube looks nice.
I was thinking of building a dual set up with 34PCI carbs and a 356 A fan shroud but have not taken the time. With the carburetors turned in the direction you have them it would easy for some one to run the new Wolfsburg West/CSP 36hp bell crank linkage!

I built a similiar setup, also with the carbs orientated that way, went on a '54 36er with polished rods & rockers in a 2 tone lowered blue and white 54 in Sydney. Built by Volksrestore in the early 90's.

Hi

I sold them on Ebay about a year ago, found them in a VW shop in South Australia in the 1980s.

hopefully in the new year... I was the ebay winner! Been on the back burner with other stuff happening but the ragtops carby started leaking the other day, so it's moved itself up the list!
Still need to find air filters, early dome type like in the other pic, or 356 mesh style, hmm..

Pretty sure they are as I think there are a few cars planning to run next year. Steve Muller could shed some light if he sees this.
