36mm webers 40mm webers

I have a set of twin 36mm webers which I am about to sell as I need some 40s or 44s . It has a set of CB? washable filters on alloy bases which are incorporated with the hexbar linkage. Can I keep the filters and linkage? will they suit 40s? what about the manifolds? are they interchangeable (doubtful)
Thanks Gurus Mitchell馃槑

All interchangeable Mitch

36 - 40 and 44's are all the same bases.

You only need to change the carbs themselves.

I have a set of 90.5 p and b with matching 040 heads, as well as 1.4:1 ratio rockerscso probably a 1776 unless i stroke and I know that that is limited also as I have 'a' pistons or 'b" but standards anyhow not stroked.
I am still not sure what i will end up with just the best i can manage I spose my buget is limited . I do know that even if its a standard crank and it ends up as a 1776 that the 36 mm webers will not be big enough.

36'S should be fine on a 1776,check your choke sizes PS i would consider 44'S to big on that size motor.

having run 36's on both 1600 and 1776 and hearing that 36's "should" be ok on a 1776 i say that they are not.

I always had troubles with the 1776 but were smooth as on the 1600.
I was running 32 vents and all sorts of jets.

By the dyno it was perfect.

NEXt time i will run 40's

I ran 36's (with 32 chokes) on my 1776 for a couple of years. Worked a treat. Good mileage and smooth.
Isn't it really the valve sizes that dictate the choke size, therefor carbs that you need to run.
That's my understanding, but I am willing to learn.

To bloody stoopid for my own good.

What would be the largest you could go using the 40's?
When it comes rebuild time for me I was thinking of going to a 2110. I know there's lots of variables but would they work on anything larger than this?
