Adapter; Fit stock Solex filters to Weber carbs.

#1 Post by Ron LaDow »

For those wanting either a stock appearance or better filtration, we now offer improved adapter plates to fit Solex air filters to Weber carbs:

Thanks to Phil Planck (who got better filtration in his 912), the new run has accurate locations for the fasteners and spring perches for Solex throttle return springs

It seems some aftermarket Solex throttle springs do not have the original form. The design was dimensioned around these springs:

Ed at Klasse found it relatively easy to modify the 'other' springs to fit just fine.
