Yes and no. It would be this week had they passed inspection. But they didn't. What can I say I'm not bringing anything in that's sub par. So they are redoing my batch again. They won't be ready to ship from my people for two weeks. I am having them air in so it should only be a week after that. I know it's not what any of you wanted to hear but some thing are out of my control. I've been burned with a whole batch before being bad and I'm not going through that again. This time the tooling for the accelerator pump had a bur on it and the bores are not smooth nor can they get them smooth. So the whole batch has to be rejected. I put a 3rd party inspector in place for just this reason.

The last carb you list, the one for $290 that accepts the throttle cable from '70-73, will it accept a later style air cleaner assembly that mounts with a stud?

Marshall,

What can you tell me about this? I'm looking to upgrade from my Holley

good on you marshall! quality first....
 
If my D40 carb isn't repairable, I'd be interested in a carb for a '74 2F with cable control throttle.

I'm correct in my understanding that the carb I ordered on 11/25 should be in this batch and will ship sometime after Jan 1?

Yes. Anyone who has already paid will be getting their air freighted in.
 
Put me on the list for my '78.
 
Used this part to get to -6

I had hardline going to my original carb, at a right (wrong? :) ) angle to the inlet of the trollhole carb. Converted the inlet to an -6AN with this part, on Amazon.

Worked great. (the picture is for a slightly different part)

Might be a little too "bling" for a FJ40, but I'm feeling good about the fuel line connection.

Thanks for a great product, TH!

Hope this helps someone else.
 
What are the actual jet sizes these are supplied with, and the really big question... Are they available separately? I just rebuilt my 1.5F, and the jets are absolutely nonsensical (at least in so far as they're marked). I'm fairly certain they've all been reamed, but I don't have any gauges to check them... New jets would be the ticket.
