OK, I have removed all the fuel injection and have the entire kit from CB ready to go on.........however, here's my problem. I'm not much of a mechanic.
The weber install doesn't look to bad, but what about the fuel pump swap and hook-up. I haven't removed the original FP yet, but when I do will there be an extra fuel line remaining? Is it as simple as taking off the old FP and just connecting the new one. It seems one of my 356 buddies said I will have to block of a return line....(I have no idea what that means). If someone has a guide or instructions on installing the carbs and more importantly the fuel pump please give me a heads up. The weber instructions don't mention the FP, so I want to make sure I get it right. Thanks, Randy |

Thanks for the reply,
One quick follow-up. While trying to install the new manifolds I cant get the nuts back on due to the side of the manifold is too close to the nut (I hope that makes sense). Any suggestions? |

There are special nuts available for the sides of the manifold. CB sells barrel nuts that use an allen wrench instead of a hex socket or open end wrench. Thats what I have for the manifolds on my daily driver. You can buy 8mm hex nuts (somewhere) that use an 11mm or 12mm wrench. I'm not sure if the 12mm ones will clear your manifolds or not. |
