Metal Carb Mounts

[UKPhilTR7]

I know this has been asked a few times and I bet some of you are fed up with reading/answering, but I thought I would put it out there one more time.

I am looking to buy some alloy carb mounts.

Is the only option becoming a member of the Dolomite Club and buying them from there?

They used to be available from different suppliers and on eBay. Haven't looked lately (FI cars don't use them).

Are you going to Gaydon ?

If so I know Guy Brinton is selling them, i am picking a set up when i go down next week.

I do not know if he has any more for sale or not, i know he is not getting any more made.

Thanks, I have since been able to secure some from Guy.

They look great and just what I wanted. It has however highlighted that the top bolt thread on the inlet manifold (next to bulk head) has stripped. So I have the option of buying another or using something called JB Weld.

You cam use a Heli-Coil and repair the threads. The repair is stronger than the original threaded hole.

You just need an electric drill and the repair kit for the bolt size that you are using. I expect that it is 5/16 course thread.
