    Just use an adaptor plate, use the same adaptor as the 32/36. i'm sure there's a ke onwer out there that could help with the exact details of fitting.

    The only carbies to bolt up to a 4K are other Japanese ones off similar vehicles, like Corona and Datsun 200B.

    The Weber needs an adapter plate. You can modify the manifold or make an addapter fairly easily yourself as I doubt your local speed shop would have that in stock anymore. A block of aluminium, 4 holes, some filing or work with a die grinder...

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Jonny Rochester @ Feb 17 2008, 10:24 AM) </div>on this note, does any one think it would be worth putting one of these said carbies on a 4k? corona is 1.8/2L (18R is the corona engine?) yeah? so if you put 4k sized jets in...that would have to be an upgrade yeah?

    Yes. A good upgrade for the small throttles on the 4K.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (GOD555 @ Feb 17 2008, 09:16 PM) </div>Yep, probably huge on a 4k. But then the 38dgas came off a 4L six (falcon) I think...
