Apparently, there's limited horizontal space (inner wheel arch) as well, which leaves little room for a spacer between the carbs and manifold anyway!

Re: ZS 150 to 175 Conversion (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 01 Dec 1998 18:44:29 -0500; Just remember when you are adding material to extend the front flange area downwards and port the opening lower than original. This will require filling in the top of the port opening a bit depending; /html/triumphs/1998-12/msg00069.html (6,974 bytes)

ZS 150 to 175 Conversion (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Wed, 18 Nov 1998 12:07:20 -0800 (PST); Thanks for the input on my What Carb question...I've fiddled with 'em long enough though, and am ready to bolt on some dependable units. I plan on upgrading to freshly rebuilt 175's, and we will fab; /html/triumphs/1998-11/msg01080.html (7,099 bytes)
4. Re: ZS 150 to 175 Conversion (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Wed, 18 Nov 1998 16:11:42 -0500; Hi John, When I converted to HD 8's in my 2.5 GT6 I didn't bother with the adapter route. If you look at your intake manifold you will notice the skinny runners leading up to flange plus the flange i; /html/triumphs/1998-11/msg01085.html (8,420 bytes)
5. Re: ZS 150 to 175 Conversion (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Thu, 19 Nov 1998 05:28:54 -0800 (PST); I'm quite sure that the standard items on your '68 GT6 would have been the 150s. Although I haven't checked the actual clearance myself, several sources (this list as well as "my mechanic" indicate; /html/triumphs/1998-11/msg01115.html (7,733 bytes)
6. Re: ZS 150 to 175 Conversion (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Thu, 19 Nov 1998 05:48:54 -0800 (PST); Thanks for the input. I'll question Duane (my mechanic) about the difference in flange size, etc. How did you come up with a 2.5 liter engine with a manifold that was too small for the carbs?

7. Re: ZS 150 to 175 Conversion (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Thu, 19 Nov 1998 14:20:01 -0500; HD8's are 2" SU's and the flange as I remember it was like a 45 degree oval. The carbs needed a more square face to bolt to. In increase my flange surface size to accommodate the larger carbs I added; /html/triumphs/1998-11/msg01142.html (8,154 bytes)
8. Re: ZS 150 to 175 Conversion (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Thu, 19 Nov 1998 12:54:31 -0800 (PST); Okay, so you're talking about a TR6 manifold and going from the ZS 175 to the HS 8. Got it. Thanks for the clarification. I do like the "bolt-on-ability" of the adapter plate as opposed to modifying; /html/triumphs/1998-11/msg01147.html (8,826 bytes)
9. Re: ZS 150 to 175 Conversion (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Thu, 19 Nov 1998 17:31:39 -0500; No, It was a GT6 manifold. The TR6 manifold would sit too high, and at the time I didn't realize you could flip the thing upside down as someone just mentioned. Fat chance, we are talking about a Tri; /html/triumphs/1998-11/msg01153.html (7,773 bytes)
