260Z Flat Top Hitachi Twin SU Style Carbs + Manifold

Post by Datto_610 »

I bought these a while ago with the plan to get them recond and fitted to my Laurel but I have decided to take a different route. I started taking one carb apart and cleaning it up, re-plated heaps of nuts and bolts etc plus the fuel hard line to the carbs. Both dash pots have been polished. At the moment it's all in a box at work and has been sitting there for some time. Would hope that someone on here has a use for them. Please note that I accidently dropped one of the pistons and the needle is now slightly bent would recommend replacement. Comes with manifold and factory 260Z aircleaner filter element is a bit dinged up. I took heaps of photos before and during disassembly that I can send to whoever buys these. I'm after $50 as that's what I paid for them. Yes they are in pieces but the plating and polishing alone is worth a lot more. Will ship and buyers expense.

Keeping it hush hush at the moment. It won't be started till after the 180 is done too. Staying L series that's all I'll give away!
