aurfalien Posted June 21, 2015 Posted June 21, 2015 Hi all, My vendor is telling me that they have no idea if and when they can get the HRM Weber kit. Would any one by chance know either; 1) How I can query HRM for an ETA on said kit? 2) Who would happen to have em on hand now? Perhaps as an alternaive, get the Webers from Norm@Replicas&Miniatures? He seems pretty accessable actually, really nice man as we spoke last week.
Greg Wann Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 HUH? A Weber kit? Is this a resin kit of a carb for a engine? What scale? If this is a kit of a carb that is a great idea.
aurfalien Posted June 22, 2015 Author Posted June 22, 2015 (edited) The HRM kit is here; http://public.fotki.com/steelers43/historic-racing-min/untitled-20photo2-jpg.html Unsure which IDA/size but a breif descrition of the kit from various web site; 1/24 scale Engine Manifold Kit.Made to fit the Revell GT350 engine, and can be adapted to others. Contains 4 Weber carbs, 8 velocity stacks, intake manifold, fuel/waterlog dist, brass tube for venturi tubes and instructions. Replicas and Miniatures of Maryland has 1/24-1/25 Weber side and down draft kits, in 48 IDA I believe. No link but here is a description from there catalgue which I bought; PA-11A Side Draft; This is a nicely detailed Weber carb, similar to the kind you see on AC Cobra engines, thus it can also be used as a down draft Weber. The stacks are seperate pieces and are about scale 4" high. Another application would be on a straight 6 cylinder engine, where they would qualify as a side draft carb. We also provide a length of 1/32" brass "thin-wall" tubing for the venturi's inside the stacks. PA-11B Down Draft; This Weber is similar to the P-11A carbs, but a bit smaller. It can be used for side draft applications as well as down draft. The stacks are seperate pieces and are about scale 3" long. A length of 1/32" brass "thin-wall" tubing for the venturi's.

Mike Chernecki Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 Give Harold of HRM a call at 301-604-8591. You can order direct and Harold can answer any questions you may have. Very nice guy to deal with.
aurfalien Posted June 23, 2015 Author Posted June 23, 2015 Wow, I called Harold@HRM, super super nice guy. Him and Norm@Rep&Min are buddies! He's sending me a catalog.
RancheroSteve Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) Harold is a great guy and makes fine products. The Replicas & Miniatures kit is very similar to the HRM kit pictured at the Fotki link, and of course excellent. Norm's delivery times are very fast, too. [Edit]: Oh, now that I look at my R&M Weber kit, I see that Harold worked on the master, so I suspect the two are practically identical. Edited June 24, 2015 by RancheroSteve
aurfalien Posted June 25, 2015 Author Posted June 25, 2015 I highly recommend these 2 ppl/companies to any/every one.
