Title: Carburator replacement F-head to L-head / Low Hood
Post by: Kalle on July 20, 2015, 05:44:24 PM

Hi everyone,

recently joined the Willys Jeep-family by buying a 51 CJ3A, so i am really new to this. Unfortunately the CJ came with an F-head engine and a cutted and extended hood. I want to exchange the existing Carter YF with an Carter YH side carburator to have a 'normal' hood again. According to other internet sources/forums, i need an 90 degree adapter to mount the Carter YH on the F-head. Does anyone in this forum did this modifcation ,too, and can give me a sketch or drawing of this adapter?

Thank you very much for all your help!

K
