Carb to Manifold bolts

[schecter]

I recently bought a 1987 pickup, base model that has been sitting for 8 years. It had a weber carb. I am putting a rebuilt Aisan back on it. When I took the weber off I found I have no bolts to mount the carb. Anyone know the size bolts I need?
Thanks.

I think the origjnal studs were 8MM-1.25.

Thanks.
I hope to get this finished today. Worried about the vacuum lines, there are quite a few of them.

Well as long as they're properly fixed and they still have a good quality, it should require less maintenance from your part. What are these vacuum lines used for in your pickup? Heater vents? Brake boosters?

There are about 8 vacuum connections on the Aisan carb. When the Weber carb was put on most were plugged with screws since there were no corresponding connections on the Weber.

How's your pickup? Have you successfully placed the Aisan carb? Mind to share a photo of your pickup now?

Well, successfully may not be apt quite yet. I did get installed. Just downloaded a diagram of the vacuum line configuration. Still need to figure them out. Too cold and snowy here in Missouri to want to even go in the garage. ( It is approx 100 feet away from the house). I have been driving, seems like the secondaries are not opening, not a lot of power. Checked my mileage..... went from 13 with the Weber to 18.5 with the Aisan.
As soon as weather is better I will take some pics.

Well at least you're getting there. Wow, seems like you have a big house (or lot). Okay, I'll be looking forward to the pics. Good luck.

Lol. Small house, large lot. Got more snow last night. Company I work at called to say plant closed today because too much snow. Last week I drove my 2 wd toyota to work and only 2 other people showed up out of 17 people cause of snow. Even the guys with 4wd said they couldn't make it.

Snow seem to be one of the obstacle in driving.. unlike other country that didn't have snow climate they the very lucky.
