sorry witzl mate i will have to pass on this one i found a set a bit closer to home and a bit cheaper but condition unknown as i havnt go around to running them but they were chockers with dust...lcuky i have the parts to rebuild
as i am using these on a 2tg i found that the 18rg carbies have a greater distance in between the two carbs and to reduce this you need to do a bit of grinding and drill and tap a new idle adjust screw, which is a 10 minute job but heads up to the people who think it is a straight swap and dont have the tools to fix it

yes, they are 44's. They are the stock carbys off the 18R-GU and they have matching i.d. no's with the engine's head. (also measured the butterfly at 44mm)
Price is negotiable, however nothing ridiculous!

actually, they all came with 40mm Solex's from thre factory.
The 44's were of course a "bolt on" upgrade with cams, headers, etc.
