Weber to Dell'orto carb swap

Post by spaz »

Greetings all,
I have an 88 Paso that I am converting from the Weber to 36 Dell'ortos using the Malossi manifolds. Can anyone help with how the manifolds go or which one goes to the front or back. If you have a set-up like this could you send a picture of each side? Thanks so much, Spaz

What I'm really wondering about is how much of an angle or what degree are the carbs at? When I did a mock-up of them it appeared they would not run at the angle they were at. Thanks,

And don't worry folks, I've replace the belts and the incorrect central pulley w/o a shoulder. Oh, and by the way Spaz, the horizontal cylinder's carby doesn't falter even at the angle, but some resourceful soul on this forum shared this link:

Hey Randy,
Thanks for all the pics. They really helped me see what I needed. I'll post when we get this all together.
