some people are like slinky's
they have no useful purpose
but they are fun to watch
when you push them down the stairs
might have done and engine swap for a ford 250
Is it only Old Blokes that have heard of the "Monaro Motors" twin SU kit for Volksies?
Man, talk about untapped potential!
I am serious...great equipment!

no, very different, & they are Stromberg CD s, which are not as good as SU's as they get older because they are more complicated & have a rubber bits that fail, & do not have such a good Jet Selection
The Monaro Motors SU conversion was featured in a late 50's Modern Motor,
Please, I need drivers side window regulator (winder mechanism) for my '54
SU kit, has a pair pointing back towards the rear of the car with flat airclearers on them.
Vintage speed stuff. Guy Harding had a 50 sumething beetle with an original set for sale a while ago

took a quick look through my late 50's Modern Motors, couldnt seem to find it, could only find an artical on the Okrasa kit, anyone know what year of the mag had it, i may have misplaced that copy.

Wheres Birchall when you need him ? I'm sure he has posted something about this not too long ago...
nice sprint kit and shorrock (or is it a MAG?) bus914. i wish i has those floating around in my shed.
urk, now sick of looking through Modern Motors, the article I was thinking of was July 57 & it was twin Solexes, there were a number of different people in Australia offering a twin SU conversion for the 36hp, one was the Automotive Carburettor Company in Melbourne, but damned if I can find the Monaro Motors advert, although I have seen it & I had another article somewhere with a 36hp running twwin SU's & a 4 tip Lukey muffler

thanks

Theres some pics of our 36hp Monaro Motors kit in the following directory:
http://www.ozaudi.com/ebay/misc/greyt/
I bought it for $25 at a holden swap meet, but it cost a heap to restore & make run right.
The car is now in Andrew Dodd's hands so you should see it around Sydney!

Nice set up Guy. I have a Monaro Motors kit. Very old and crusty, needs a bit of TLC. The SU's corrrode badly. The manifold and linkages are all good. Air filters ok.
Longterm plan to put it on a future oval project.
Tripped over it at the Baccus Marsh swap a couple of years ago.
Sorry BB not for sale mate.

Yep, take your time - ours was all originally chrome plated & had to be redone - I don't know if that was an option or not - the manifold is from memory cast brass on the ends (and the linkage arms etc...)

Dragging this post up from the depths does anyone have one of these kits or anymore info on these kits. I wouldn't expect many kits would of been sold depending on how long they were available from.
recycle, restore, enjoy
