Quick relpy need

Hi,

just spotted this on ebay Harley Davidson cv carb, part number 27038-92.

Will this work on my 81 Ironhead?

Thanks,

Andy.

I'm not an expert on ironheads but as you want a quick reply - yes it would,. I'm assuming it's the 40mm cv which was a very popular performance enhancement for ironheads

Thanks guys,

that link is great. I have e-mailed the seller about the size. If it is a 38mm carb is that ok too? Bidding ends tomorrow tea time.

Andy.

Hi Andrew,
if you do go with it I can email you pics of the manifold adaptor I made if you need it.
I've got some info somewhere of best jets to start with.

Good luck

Tibbs

It's the 38mm one you want for the ironhead chap. You can buy the adaptors from the states, they're not expensive.
