Webcon, the world’s largest supplier of genuine Weber carburettors, is delighted to announce that a manifold kit for the Suzuki SJ413 is available once again.

For many years, the original Webcon SJ413 kit has been the global benchmark for reliability, economy, performance and ease of fit, but the Weber 32DGR carburettor used in that kit is now no longer produced.

The good news is that the engineers at Webcon have redesigned the kit to utilise the Weber 32/36 DGV carburettor. This has been expertly calibrated in Webconʼs own in-house facility to produce even more power whilst retaining the same class leading levels of economy and reliability.

Fitting is still a breeze and Webcon continues to use its own, unique, plenum intake system that fits perfectly to the existing air cleaner assembly. This kit WILL NOT suffer carb icing in the way that a cheap bolt on air filter may and, best of all, the new improved 32/36 DGV kit is still extremely competitively priced at just £414.75 plus VAT. So contact Webcon now for details of your local authorised stockist and breathe new life into your SJ413.

Available directly from Webcon and from appointed Webcon dealers around the world.

The Porsche 924 is rapidly gaining a following as a cost effective, superb handling, classic. However, the stock EFI system can often prove troublesome and is expensive to repair.

As a result, an increasing number of owners are seeking alternative induction systems, and one of the most popular is a Weber DCOE upgrade. The heart of this conversion is the intake manifold and Webcon is pleased to announce the launch of its own component manufactured in the UK.

Produced to Webcon’s legendary quality standards, part number MW9007 is supplied complete with studs, nuts and softmount kits, as shown, and is available from stock at just £341.25 plus VAT.

MW9007 is also available as a complete kit with linkage and authentic Weber DCOE carburettors as part number PPO204 priced at £1808.79 plus VAT.

A conversion to carburettors will also require the use of a Webcon Edelbrock low pressure fuel pump no.17303 which Webcon can also supply at £90.92 plus VAT.

Available directly from Webcon and from appointed Webcon dealers around the world.

With the design of many Mini parts now some 60 years old it’s hardly surprising that science has developed improved alternatives.

The classic Mini differential output shaft oil seal is a case in point.

The new seal is available as part number ADU5738VITON and retails at just £3.42 each inc VAT. (Two are required per gearbox).

ADU5738VITON is suitable for all classic Mini’s except Cooper S and early automatics.

With most Austin Healey Sprites currently resting in garages waiting for the spring, it’s a great time to start working on them, and one improvement would be changing to a Fidanza Aluminium Flywheel.

A Fidanza lightweight flywheel is simple to install when the clutch is replaced and will bring the following benefits:

• Faster throttle response and quicker acceleration
• Additional horsepower to the wheels (reduced parasitic losses)
• Smoother, faster shifting
• Easier braking, better slowing (due to reduced rotational mass)
• Reduced clutch wear and improved efficiency (from better heat dissipation)
• Cost savings and longevity (thanks to Fidanza’s replaceable green friction plate – there is no need
to replace the entire flywheel when worn)
• Potential for increased fuel economy (if you can keep your foot off the gas!)
• Quality and reliability (made in the USA from top grade materials)

A Fidanza lightweight flywheel for the 1961-63 Austin Healey Sprite can be ordered as part number 126481 and retails at USD $331.61 plus shipping and tax.

For more information on Fidanza’s aluminium flywheels, adjustable cam gears, premium clutches and other great products, or to find a dealer in your area, visit www.fidanza.com
