It’s a fairly major effort to swap out the shaft on a Weber, correct?

I have a pair of 40s we are the shafts are mismatched, the other one does not have this extension on it and I need both to be the short style.

This is for the 912 but air cooled Porsche so I figured why not ask here.

Thanks!

Messing with the throttle plates is fiddly. The progression holes are drilled after the plates are installed, so changing anything around can mess up their relationship. Better to have Pierce Manifolds go through them or maybe @ThePaintedMan .

If the relationship between the progression holes and the plates is wrong, you'll have a hard time tuning the carbs.

Also, isn't there a small nut deep in the end of that extension?
