J13 CARBURETOR OPTIONS


Droski

Recommended Posts

hello gang

 

im currently running a Nikki Carburetor on my j13 engine for my 1966 520 pickup

 

i was wondering if there are any better carburetor options that i could simply bolt on

ive heard talk about webers being good replacement options

 

is it possible to put 620 or 720 carbs on a j13 engine?

Webers will require an adaptor unless you can find a hens-tooth rare 34DFT.  The bolt pattern is the same as the later Hitachis, but there is some concern with valve cover clearance since the Nikki carb is quite a bit smaller.  I've seen 32/36 DGV Webers on J13s, it's a little bit large and it does require an adaptor but they do work.

Rebuild yours, by rebuild  I really mean take apart and clean it. There are few parts that wear out and dirt and maladjustment are the cause of most problems.
