Any bank of 4 carbs from litre area bikes. I have ZZr1100 carbs for my Zetec and I know DarrenW is putting some on his 2.0 Pinto.

You will need a decent pump, I'm trying the one from the bike to start wiht and I'm using Megajolt to spark it up. Although if your using the dizzy you dont need it but youll lose the vacumm advance.

I picked my carbs up off ebay for £45 and they are 40mm. Plenty of other 'older' bikes with big carbs, GSXR's CBR's etc. Some of teh 750's have decent size (38+) carbs as well.

Iv got ZX9R carbs on my zetec with megajolt for ign. 38mm bodies. Running a carbed R6 fuel pump. Bike pumps are they easiest way of getting the fuel pressure right.. Make sure u dont get an injected bike pump the pressures alot higher.


I dizzy'd pinto will work fine with bike carbs.

we used zx9 carbs , 40mm chokes, easy to sort out with jetting and used the bike fuel pump, they work a treat. fitted under bonnet with a suasage filter without having to cut a hole or have a bonnet bulge

I've a set of R1 carbs away at Bogg Bros at the moment getting setup and mounted on one of their manifolds. They cost ~£80 from germany.

I've also just recieved a megajolt kit from Ray Ward that I plan to run it all with. This is for a fairly modified 2.1 Pinto.
