Title: WTB. 124 spider FI manifold.
Post by: Tas131 on July 28, 2009, 08:51:53 PM
I'm after a manifold that will give me enough room underneath it to mount an Eaton supercharger. A 124 spider manifold would give me the most room, but other manifolds may be an option. I can get a Tempra manifold from New Zealand, but a spider manifold is my preference at the moment.

I've tracked down a spider manifold from the US for a good price, unfortunately freight to Australia is $120 US, so to get my hands on the manifold would cost me $240 Aust. A Tempra manifold from NZ is $250 Aust. I've bought an 8V integrale manifold from Germany, $170 Aust. including freight.

He has quite an assortment of Fiat/Lancia bits, well worth a look.

Hi Mick,

I have a spare Argenta FI manifold you are welcome to.  Looks the same as my spider manifold which is mated to a Strada 130 engine, also using the insulator gasket found on the original twin carb set up which all fits under the bonnet with no probs.

I could have a closer look if you want.

Rgds,

John.

Bummer, I've already committed to buying an integrale manifold. Where abouts on the planet are you?

Central Scotland.  Bought three engines and gearboxes recently, and one was an Argenta.

Give me a shout if you require anything.

Rgds,

John.

Mick ,
Just had a thought!..I'm sure I have an automatic bellhousing, which if memory serves me right has the starter on the left side of the engine (below the exhaust)
  I was keeping it when thinking of a Lancia 16v transplant..the reason why escapes me now.  Can anyone confirm the reason?

Anyway it's there for the taking.

Rgds,

John.
