Reid, I was running a Holley then went to a weber, see attached
http://www.buga.com.au/index.php?option=com_gallery2&Itemid=8&g2_itemId=32927 (http://www.buga.com.au/index.php?option=com_gallery2&Itemid=8&g2_itemId=32927)

It was a blue 3.3 motor with a 12 port head and electronic ignition. Have pulled the motor out and could be interested in selling the whole lot.

Cheers,

Mike

Hi reid

Falcon carbies used are the ADM 34...XE/Xf models...
i have run these set ups on all my beddies....

works a treat..for the most power and awesome economy

.best to get  em rejetted and put over a dyno

..coz the falcon motor is much bigger...and ya get bog down spots w standard jets....

ya can chek pics in my gallery ....i posted the jet sizes up on a previous post too....

Thanks for that Marky I thought that a Weber off a 200 xe would be jetted pritty close I have a Weber 36/42 I think it's called on mine [see camper update] & it's not right It works all right but useing fuel like it's going out off fashon & it's hard to get parts for so I thought a falcon one would be better Ill go to the wreckers this week & see if I can get one Just hope the bolt patern is the same Cheers Reid

Ok, Steve said He had to cut n modify the original 202 blue motor manifold which came from the VC commodore&used the original varijet carby.
A large piece of the alloy manifiold just below the side of the carby was cut away,and had to be capped with a piece of aluminum welded inn.
And yep,pain in the ass to modify the engine cover (fiddly  pannel beatn job)to fit but all good now!
Hope this helps?

Poochi(secretary) ;D
