[Guest Kennedy48]

Can someone give me a list of parts required to fit bike carbs to a pinto please, obviously the carbs plus manifold. What else do I need

 

Thank you

Best with a bike fuel pump but a Malpassi regulator will do

You can use push bike cables for the throttle and choke

An air filter

I used a silver top facet pump and filter king regulator still going strong years later, other than that some sort of throttle cable (bespoke) and a choke cable then a dyno to see them up

On my first setup I modified the Sierra throttle cable so as to keep the pedal end ferule

and used a propriatery choke cable

Now I have cable made from a universal kit off eBay, has all the bits you will need

Choke is wired to the bonnet release leaver on the Sierra column

As said push bike brake cables work great and cheap. You need fuel resistant silicon joiner hoses and thin jubilee clips. wide ones will not hold the silicon tube onto the carb. Mine would work off in a short time.

For the fuel pump a motor bike one is ideal. Bike carbs run at about 3 psi. The bike carbs have a built in switch so they run to 3 psi and switch off. But it as low to the tank as possible and as close to the tank as possible. One off a 900cc or bigger will do.
