WTB: SOLEX 40 PI Diffusor

304678 · 05-16-2007, 03:34 AM

I am in search of 1, 2 or 3 diffusors for Solex 40PI carbs (1965/66-911). I can also use a velocity stack and a rod that operates both Carb banks.

Thanks, Richard

I've got several sets of Solex PII carbs. I can probably pull the parts you are looking for.

PM me.

Hi Tom - saw your post on the Pelican BB re Solex PI's - I am looking for a full set for a 2 liter 911 we are building up here in Oxford, England - we have to use them for some of the European races. Can you help? I will be glad to find a set, maybe you can help! my email peter.rutt@rampartsecurity.com hope to hear from you Rgds Denton / Peter R

I've got several sets of Solex P11 carbs for the 356/912 motors.

I do not have the early Solex 911 carbs.

Hi Tom - sorry you don't have any 40PI's from a 911 - I know the inlet manifolds are different between the 912 / 356 & the early 911, but are the actual carbs different as well? They might be the same ..... pic attached.[img] Regards Peter R http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploads11/40PI+image1190706157.jpg[/img]

I believe they are different. The P11 are dual throat and the 911 carbs are triple throat.

Here's a pic of my 40-P11's

Hi Tom, thanks for the pic of the PII's - yes, they are different (the 40PI's are single-throat carbs, 3 on each side on a 911, with no float chamber on the carb: they operate from a common / shared float chamber built into the 3-way inlet manifold). So yours won't fit the 911 - but thanks for taking the trouble to reply.
Best regards Denton // Peter R.
PS Anyone out there with a set of 911 Solexes for sale?
