Changing from the Solex Cisac to any other type of carb.

why not get to the scrappers, dig out some pipes and stick a cone filter on the end?

I think he means he needs the alternative type of inlet manifold so that he can fit an alternative type carb than the original troublesome solex cisac

I'm planning a return visit to the local breakers, that had a B200K with inlet, carb etc.

I can grab that if you're 100%?

Thanks for the offer mate, it's very generous. I need a carb jetted for the 230K so hang fire a day or two while I ask about regarding rejetting. If that seems viable it's all gravy.

Thanks again.

I have called Gower and Lee for advice on jetting, they are closed until Monday though, will let you know then.

OK, Gower and Lee say rejetting is not a problem, so can you please grab the manifold, carb and inlet pipe on your next visit? Also, would you have an idea of what they'll be asking for it?
