16v WUR

Post by millsy20 »

Does the 16v WUR fit on 8v engines. If so are there any power gains from doing this.

They do fit, and are supposed to increase fueling when you give it the beans. But im not 100% sure where the vacuum pipe is meant to connect on an 8v motor.


Don't ask me....it was like that when i got here !

Does that mean you need a 'Y' piece to join into the vacuum tube from the distributor to the throttle body?

Or a T piece, but that's effectively what I've done on mine - yes.
