Carbureted 4g64 - April 09, 2010 08:31 pm UTC
I understand these do exsist in a few different forms with Hitachi carbs . I am looking for an OEM manifold to try with a 4130 Holley carb ,could anyone tell me what make, model and year these may have come ?

I dont know how they differ but old Starions and conquest came with a single cam 4g63 I believe and they were carb.

Actually, I think that engine was a 2.6 liter (Astron, not Sirius) in North America.
I know older Colts came with 4G63s, perhaps some of them ran carbs in the late 80s?

Sirius 4G63 was the motor in the starions they were a 2.0l.
I think with some looking all the models over here were 2.6's.
There are references to SOHC galants in my manual with a carb on them. Perhaps they may have what you need or the eagle 2000gtx

I suppose what i really need to know is will any of those intake manifolds fit a 16 valve SOHC 4g64 .

I'm not sure if it will but you could compare both Intake Manifold Gaskets.

Don't mean to butt in again but what would the advantage be towards a carb rather than a generic 4g63? If you don't me asking.

No problem Luc .
We race a Cordia at various southern Ontario oval tracks . One of the tracks allows carbureted engines to use " any" cam shaft where as EFI cars must run a stock cam . The only catch is that it has to be a factory OEM carb manifold .

Oh cool! Thanks for the info! I wish you better luck than me! Base duty driver on a Saturday, bummer!
