Title: footprint solex 40 p II 4 vs weber idf 40 Post by: wolfswest on August 03, 2010, 10:38:26 am Hi, I have manifolds for the 356/912 carbs and I was wondering if the footprint is the same as a weber 40mm idf carb...
Or do I need to buy another set of manifolds? thx, Dem Title: Re: footprint solex 40 p II 4 vs weber idf 40 Post by: Fastbrit on August 03, 2010, 12:29:49 pm You need new manifolds. There are adaptors available, if you can track them down...

I've seen manifolds that take the solex 40 P11 and weber IDFs, but the outer stud is in a different position. basically, these manifolds have 6 studs but depending on which carbs you mount you remove 2 of the outer studs.

See the above post… ;) I've seen manifolds that take the solex 40 P11 and weber IDFs, but the outer stud is in a different position. basically, these manifolds have 6 studs but depending on which carbs you mount you remove 2 of the outer studs. I know about those, but presumably Dem doesn't have them…Title: Re: footprint solex 40 p II 4 vs weber idf 40 Post by: wolfswest on August 03, 2010, 13:13:35 pm thx guys,
I'm asking these questions for a friend of mine, later this week I have the idf + solex carbs in my possession and then we will see. the adaptor kit is maybe more expensive then a pair of new manifolds? where can I buy this adaptor kit? thx Title: Re: footprint solex 40 p II 4 vs weber idf 40 Post by: Zach Gomulka on August 03, 2010, 15:36:19 pm http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=982679
