Did this end up going ahead? Im after a set too. Soft-mount versions are available ex-yahoo japan but arent really suitable for what i need.

Hi Nick

Found this website in Japan that sells the manifolds

I will post the link for the twin can manifold which is on page 4 but if you look on page 3 it would appear that the g161 twin webers manifolds -- no sure

Cheers Flying

Yeah I found those ones yesterday via Import Monster ...

Hi guys,

Have so far somewhat unsuccessfully tried to get photos of DOHC webber manifolds as per the ones that are being made through the forum. Is anyone able to assist with some pictures so i can set about seeing if they are suitable for my ITB conversion?

Nick.

See link, may be of use to someone.

I think it first appeared in oz mid 65 and ran through till about 82ish just prior to being replaced by the twin spark model. Was used in pretty much everything from GTV's to the Alfetta.

Boost is always simpler....but then again, so is just using a G series SOHC. Wanted something different that ...

The shims are the easy bit as getting some made up is relatively cheap/inexpensive [i think it was something like $8 a shim]. The unfortunate part is though, despite the fact they were raced here, reliable info is veeeeeeeeeery scarce. Have spoken numerous times with different people and the "L1 ...

I have no idea where people get thisn "L1" grind from. Every time I've asked someone no one either knows the specs, or no one has even heard about it. This includes Alfa people [their DOHC is very similar].

Cam grinds are the biggest i could go without re-welding. Duration is 292 advertised / 242 ...

Havent done much on this, been too busy with reno's to my house and working on the girlfriends Gemini. Just a little teaser then...

Before.

GT orphanage, im interested.

Check your pms

what series is the twin cam with the alloy blue timing cover?

Gemini ZZ/R PF60E

Figure it might be time for an update on the car itself, as soon the engine will be going together and ill be on here more frequently asking stupid questions.

Early September it went to jail.

140hp @ rear wheels should be do-able on an unmodified head. As a guide, my previous G200w made 112rwhp, the only mods were a VN throttle body, an old haltech and a crap set of 4-2-1's.

I used Greg's part number with Burton's letterhead on it a few days ago. It's no longer available.

Hey Glenn, there was only one left after i bought mine from memory so im not suprised. There is however someone selling a full gasket kit on ebay to suit these engines - however, at roughly $400ish ...

DOHC is double row SOHC is single row - by SOHC i mean G---Z series engines. Id assume the lower chain [crank to dummy cam] is the same as the pushrod version, top one being exclusive to the DOHC only?

gt the chains you listed, do they need links removed or are they a straight go-er? Ive seen the ...

Call to local burons again, gave them the part number - what engine is it for? Errr i dont know. Just got off the phone to AAA Gaskets and your right it does exist sooooo going to order one now.

Glenn, unfortunately the yanks never got the DOHC stuff which is a shame as I have a few contacts over there...wouldve made getting some bits relatively painless!

just in case you think i am F.O.S.I spoke to Adam at morayfield store and he said they are still available if you have drama's he is ...

Had a quick chat with Bursons in cambelfield....apparently theres nothing on the system for a VRS to suit the DOHC's. gt orphanage whered you get them from? Ive seen one set on ebay....but it seems abit steep.

Anyone else able to add anything to this?

Thanks fellas. My family will tell you im sick but its my dads fault - he had two over the course of the years, taught me to drive in them etc. Didnt help he banned me from buying the HQ monaro i was looking at when i was 15 - apparently there was no way he would let me pay $4000 for a 35yr old rust ...

Centre to centre is 90mm, identical to the G series DOHC's. Will have to get some more piccies, need to clean em up first seeing as the oil burning 'zilla they came off has made them filthy.
Depends on which one you want to EFI - easy as with a SOHC or DOHC as theres a whole heap of bolt-on Isuzu ...

Its abit quiet at work today so i thought id bore myself and whoever is reading by writing that up

Yep they are GTR items....pretty damn good too! Centre-to-centre they are the same distance as a webber carb and the G series DOHC which is handy, plus being a plate-only setup they are pretty thin ...
