Hi guys. Am i missing something here? I wanted to use this inlet and carb for my turbo build. But the gas lever touches the inlet. Am i mossing something here? ( the spacer blok is going to replaced) Edited by Rammie2000 on 25th Oct, 2014. you can do anything if you set your mind to it...

I sold a couple of HIF44 recently but neither of them had the throttle cam like yours. Mine were more compact...

that indeed lookes quit different. maybe wrong leaver. the hole on the inlet is the same as the carb outlet. you can do anything if you set your mind to it...

Most (if not all) hif carbs ive seen have that lever, a large spacer is probably required, ill take a look at my own later but i don't think that it would catch even without a spacer On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

Depending on how much extra space is needed I have, in the past "eased" the manifold a little with an angle grinder.

Inlet is as good as any for turbo aslong as it fits with your exhaust manifold ( most dont) Yes i moved to the darkside |

Adding a bigger spacer infers longer studs and perhaps another problem with clearance on the inlet side of the carb. its about 10 mm. bit to much to grind i think. but you do give me the idea to divide the problem. if i could get it 5 mm closer and space it out 5 mm more i might get away with it and get the bonnet shut. ( cant get it shut now if i space it fully out) will try to put it to the other side first like mentioned above but if not working ill give this a try. you can do anything if you set your mind to it...

( this build been a learning modding one off build thingy curve) but a nice learning curve though. expensive... but nice.

Thinking about it again, there were other subtle differences with my carbs. They had typical Mini needles installed, but may well have started life on other cars. I've just searched for pictures of Mini carbs and nearly all have the cam style linkage. |

thanks for all the advice here. looked at all options today and ended up with removing 3 mm material on the inlet and some on the lever. 5 mm in total. now i need an other 6 mm to space out extra. what would be the best material to make it from? aluminium or something like teflon bar?
