WTB - HJ Rochester suit reco

[GTS]

SLIGHTLY off topic

I've got a HQ rochester on my HZ.
Are they hard to get hold of, and if so how much are they worth???

I don't know that they are hard to get hold of...I only started looking this week. They dodgey one I got on ebay was $50.00...and now the cash is back in my pocket. If you want "hard to get hold of" go get me a standard, non locking petrol cap.....well actually I have one now, it only took me 12 months.

i may have something in the rack..i sold a hq one on the weekend for $125 which is really all they are worth as a second hand rebuildable unit..will have to look and it wont be dodgey...i know im getting short of them..i use to have heaps but a carby specialist came and paid me stupid money for all the early ones about 4 years ago..he got 50 of them....it certainly cleaned the racks out.

Just went and had a look at the one on the passenger seat of the tonner but it seems to have fuel going into the centre front and part no 17059596. I have a heap more out at the farm but mightn't be out there for a few weeks.

I'm not in a rush. I have a HX manifold and carby on it at the moment and it starts and runs OK.

you should call Tom at padstow He used to work for Sams Performance and Sam set him up im his own shop

He does awesome work with them and they use them on 450hp cars so they are the goods

last time i cheaked he charged $300 for a full rebuild and he may have some sitting there for sale as well

call Sams on 9772 3105 and ask for Toms number

Looks like a later (mid 1978 on) HZ 253 auto top end. Also suits later LX or VB Commodore 253 auto.
