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,

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

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...)

Manaro Motors Su Kit
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
