Re: Carb ID's
Were these all from 850s? all Webers except the one solex with the abarth stamp on the bottom. will be selling all but really want to know what I have and if any stand out. also a rough value...I will def be fair on them but want to recoup some of my costs in my purchase.
As far as Fiat 850-related items go, here is a breakdown of what you have:
A = 1966-69 Fiat 850 Spider, Coupe & Special with 843cc or 817cc engine.
B = 1970-73 Fiat 850 Sport Spider, Racer & Sport Coupe with 903cc engine.
The intake manifolds with the extra ports on the side are for the smog/emissions equipment-ladened USA 903cc cars.
For the remaining items, the breakdown goes:
C = Fiat 600 (hot-rod) or Abarth 750, depending on which Solex model the carb is. This alloy type of Abarth manifold was sold back in the day either separately or as part of the 750cc transformation kit for the early Fiat 600 633cc engines. Money-maker #1. :wink2:
D = Fiat 1100 (Weber 32IMPE). In modified form, this carb was also used on...
E = Abarth 750. Weber 32IMPE carb (originally used on Fiat 1100), with modified throttle linkage & choke cable set-up. Unfortunately, yours is missing the small but important L-shaped bracket that holds the end of the choke cable outer sheath in the proper position/orientation for use with this carb. Still, the carb & manifold appear to be in good, clean condition which is a plus. The black steel/cast iron intake manifold is an original Abarth factory-fitted item on the 750cc engines in their coachbuilt cars. Money-maker #2. :wink2:
It appears you also have a second separate manifold like this, probably intended by the previous owner to be used with carb D if/when it was modified correctly. (I'd be interested in buying this manifold for my own 750, if available?) :whistle:
F = Fiat 600 or 600D. I'd need to know the cast-in part number to be able to tell which engine it goes to. The part # is often found on the side of the manifold; 100.000 is 600, 100.D.100 is 600D.
