Buying stuff from a stoner is always a gamble. I need some intake pre heaters. I dont think I have any old intakes to hack up.

Let me know if you have any to sell.

I am looking for an old junker intake to cut off the pre heater ends. You know you have one in the VW pile.

Did my wife tell you guys not to sell me anything??

I've got a single port manifold. The pre heater tubes are kinda short, but you're welcome to it.

I may just fab something. I will look around and see if I have any blockoff laying around. I have some 3/8 steel fuel line that should keep the beast warm.


Eric are you running F7 or F11 emulsion tubes on your carb? The brass piece that hold the Jets. I read they like F7.

Looks like I've got F-11s. Pre-heater idea: I once drilled a pair of heater block off plates, then brazed an 18" long piece of 1/4" copper tubing to each one. Pinched and crimped the other ends. I wrapped the copper tubing around the manifold runners. It worked really well on a Baja bug that I ran up and down I-80 in the winter.

That's a good idea. They sell the block off plates at Parts for Imports.

Speedie we are thinking the same way except I will not be able to wrap the intake. I got some 1 5/8 hose to make connectors to the intake. 1 5/8 intake all the way should make a good flow.

If you want to try some F7's you can borrow a pair.

Thanks on the F7s. No hurry, I'm off to yard projects for awhile.
