Yamaha Xs650 One Inch Billet Carburetor Adaptors on 2040-parts.com
Exeter, California, US
This is a set of two one inch round carburetor adaptors I made for my 1982 XS650 Café project. I tooled up to make four sets and ended up selling every adaptor I made. Since I needed a set for my bike I made additional adaptors for my project and few more to sell to people who wanted them. This is the round type that takes the hose and hose clamp as shown in the one example picture. I made this type of spacer for two reasons. I wanted to have the ability to run non-stock carburetors and I also wanted to make a carburetor adapter with the least amount of air obstruction between the carburetor and my intake ports. The bore in these adaptors is about 34mm, and tapers out about 15 degrees to match the bore of my BS38 carburetors on my 82 XS650 special. I simply bored them to match the intake ports on my head and the bore of the carburetors as shown in the pictures then finished the bore with light emery cloth. The only flaws are washer marks where I test fitted them and the usual tool marks from machining. The overall finish is machined aluminum. The assembly pictures are of the adaptors on my 1982 447 engine.
They come with four 304 stainless socket head cap screws and stainless 8 washers. Shipping will be $5.80 USPS in a small USPS flat rate box. No returns, No international buyers that means USA only and Paypal only. Shipping on this will have delivery conformation.

New VW Beetle gets new engines
Thu, 26 Jul 2012Volkswagen has finally made the new VW Beetle available with the 2.0 litre TSI petrol and 2.0 litre turbodiesel engines. When we reported the other day that the new VW Beetle Convertible was arriving at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November we did say that VW were about to announce the arrival, finally, of the 2.0 litre TSI petrol and 2.0 litre TDI diesel for the Beetle to make it a bit more appealing. It seems VW must have been listening as they’ve now announced that you can grab a new Beetle with either the more powerful petrol or the diesel engine, which should help sales of the new Beetle.

Infiniti JX (7-seat crossover) tease – now it’s the C-Pillar. Whoopee!
Fri, 22 Jul 2011Infiniti JX Concept Tease - now it's the kinky c-pillar Last week we finally relented and decided we needed to cover the tease ahead of the launch at Pebble Beach of the Infiniti JX Crossover. So far we’ve had a blurry motion image which gave us a familiar Crossover/SUV shape, a glimpse of the front from low-down on the front nearside three-quarters, and a shot of the tail light with a glimpse up the side of the JX. We’re now treated to a photo looking down on the JX from the nearside rear three-quarters.
