Webcon is delighted to announce that its superb DCOE mesh filters are now back in production.

Designed to be used oil free, the Webcon mesh filters feature two layers of stainless mesh
around a high performance filter layer to offer superior levels of filtration whilst ensuring
almost no restriction to airflow.

Fitting takes only a matter of seconds and the only maintenance required is periodic cleaning.
They add no more than 20mm to the end of the air horn, so you can be assured of the very finest filtration in the tightest of spaces.

Webcon mesh filters are supplied in pairs as follows:
40 DCOE AFM4056 (pr) £48.50 plus VAT
45 DCOE AFM4563 (pr) £48.50 plus VAT
48DCO/SP + 48IDA AFM4870 (pr) £48.50 plus VAT
40DCNF (not 40DCNF12/13) 9921736000R £102.22 plus VAT

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

Webcon has just introduced a new inlet manifold to allow a pair of Weber DCOE carburettors
or DCOE style throttle bodies to be installed on the popular Ford Duratec engine.

Webcon designed the new manifold and CNC manufactured it from billet aluminium to have a thickness of just 35mm from face to face; this makes it ideal for transverse engine installations such as the Lotus Elise Duratec transplant.

However, when used with Webcon’s 32mm manifold extenders, the depth jumps to 67mm making it equally perfect for rear wheel drive installations where a longer intake allows for greater mid- range torque.

MM5060 Manifold is available at £538.74 plus VAT

For years, Weber 50DCO/SP carburettors have only been available as LH and RH
units, with the outer throttle shaft ends blanked off.

This works well with a conventional distributor ignition system, but as
mapped ignition systems have become more widely used, so the demand for a throttle position sensor fitment on the 50DCO/SP has grown.

In response to this demand Webcon has developed a new, unified
50DCO/SP that features throttle shaft at both ends of the carburettor
and will allow fitment of a Webcon DCO/SP throttle position sensor kit.

Part number 1965000700 can be used for LH or RH fitment, and is available
at £766.24 plus VAT

A unified version of the Weber 55DCO/SP is also available as part number 1970000700
Priced at £799.31 plus VAT.

When restoring a classic Mini it’s amazing how many tiny parts can catch you out if you haven’t obtained them before starting work. One such part is the long locating pin, used to position the retainer 22G1434 which holds a rod change gear lever in place in the alloy housing. This is one of the two pins required: a long one and a short one.

Thankfully this tiny part is once again available from Mini Spares.
Order as part number DAM2670 at £3.60 inc. VAT.
(In case you’re wondering, the short pin is also available from Mini Spares as part number 22G2272)

The Burton Power modular cover and water pump kit for the Lotus Twin Cam enables the water pump components to be easily removed without disturbing the front cover or the sump.

The water pump components are assembled into a module which can then be inserted into the front cover housing and retained with three socket cap screws. This saves a huge amount of time when replacing the water pump seals and bearing, and saves unnecessary costs in replacing oil and gaskets.

The package includes the water pump module as well as both front and rear covers. It is suitable for a standard height original 1500 block (an alternative is available for 1600 blocks). It is also ideal as a replacement for original corroded front covers. Please note that Burton front covers and back plates cannot be mixed with OE items.
