afh 16v intake options

Featured Replies

Apologies if this information is already available in the 16v conversion thread, I'm using my phone right now and that thread is tricky to follow even on a proper PC.

 

Basically I want to know if the afh engine specifically needs bike carbs when doing a mk2 engine swap or if I can use my Weber 28/32 dmtr, if I can use the Weber what are my intake manifold options.

 

Does the Ashley 421 exhaust manifold fit the afh engine?

 

I understand I need a loom, does it have to be an afh polo loom or would one from a 6n 8v work? What else would I need.

 

Again, I'm sorry to ask as I'm fully aware this information is available but I'm just after a very concise run down until I can get to my PC and have a proper research.

if you want to run your weber then it would be a custom manifold....tbh id stick with the reliable factory fuel inj as it just works 

 

if using a carb you want the late mk2 ign loom and parts

Ta very much, I knew I'd have to have a custom manifold. I figured the carb would be easier to set up and get working than the injection.

seems most people think that , but the injection will run all day long at its best from day one , you might spend months messing with manifolds and carb sizing thats no where near right , guess it depends on what you want and your ability

Ok, I'll try and get the whole package when I finally find a donor car.
