Are the sync link parts found on other Weber carbs?

Wanted to go with the sync link while rebuilding my 32/36 and I'm curious if the parts to do this are off of other Weber carburetors. Asking because the shop down the street can get Weber parts next day so I'd be able to get this thing back together sooner. 

 

I believe at least the dual pumper nozzle is a 38/38 part correct? What about the rest?

The synch link itself is an aftermarket part but, Ie not from Weber who just made synchronised carbs if they fancied it. 

 

That being said, the parts may well be available from any good carb part supplier and the dual accelerator pump is a factory part as you point out.

Sync-link can be bought from Redline (owned by worldpac).  Redline is also the US importer of Weber carbs.  Therefore, your shop can get the sync-link the next day, just like webers…. if they know the redline part number.

 

edit: and today is the fourth.... so don't get your hopes up that something ordered today to be there in the morning.

 

edit 2: WP/Redline's part number is actually also just "sync-link".

Ah great, the shop is a Worldpac dealer.

Like the idea. Would love to give it a a try, a bit of a cheaper approach to a 38/38 

But haven't some had some issues with settings/jetting?

CD had some recommendations but despite his brilliance,  some had mixed results. Would love to see some more current results. 

I would install it in a a heartbeat if I knew there were some solid setup recommendations. 

 

Cheers and Happy Birthday America!

FYI, the dual outlet accelerator pump nozzle is a Weber part (that's part of the Sync-Link kit) so you can order that separately.

Turns out the part number from Redline is just SYNC-LINK. My local Worldpac dealer ordered it in for me. Also if you get the Redline upjet kit (701-DGV4) it comes with the dual pumper nozzle. Just an FYI

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
