Question on Hipo Carb rebuild

  • i'm considering buying a hipo carb that is missing some parts, not yet sure which parts specifically. can someone tell me- if i have a carb from an "A" code with 1.12 venturi's can i take most of the parts the hipo carb needs from this other one ?


    i just don't know how many parts in a manual choke hipo carb are unique to it and how many are interchangable with the 4100's used on the "A" codes ?


    thanks in advance-

  • The "A" code carb does not really share any parts with the "K" carb. The main body, top, choke plate shaft, throttle plates, jets and venturi clusters are all different between the two. Other than that, they are all the same. <img src=images/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
