No kidding. What kinda idiot spray paints the carbs???
and how does a PVC tube with the same size opening as the carb throat help anything?

But, if it was the right price, its worth the clean up.

$100 if complete. Who knows what's under the glue blink.gif Look forward to a total clean up and rebuild. blink.gif

Sweeeeet. Bet I could make them work on the 3.6.

I love the fact that whoever did this didn't even bother to remove the price tag from the pvc. av-943.gif PVC velocity stacks! barf.gif Probably seemed like a good idea at the time.

(I have it on good word that those actually came off 914RS... complete with a "creative" Home Depot spaghetti manifold system. Check the paint... nobody else here is at least a little sceptical?)

what did you use to strip the paint...

I ask, because I'm about to take a shot at stripping this baby:

JASCO will remove any paint in sheets.

Use only if you intend on replacing gaskets (like on carbs).

Jasco,

I didn't even think of that
I've used it in home remodeling applications....
might be worth a try

I'll see what brake cleaner does too

thanks guys and sorry for the hijack
the carbs look awesome Joe!
good job
