Heatshields for HS6 and HIF6 Carbs 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be tommyt544 on  Wed Nov 2 08:07 CST 2022 [RELATED]

Are the HS6 and HIF6 heatshields interchangeable? Do I need individual heatshields for HIF6s or can I use the older style single piece from the HS6?

    Hello,

    We've never done it, but you might be able to use 1 of them.

    But depending on which intake/exhaust manifold you're using, you may have to use the later version that was made for the 1968 Volvo B18s with dual HS6 carbs.

    The later version of the 1 piece heat shield has a different shape and has some holes for clearance over the bolts that hold down the pre-heat plate on the exhaust manifold.

    If you can't find 1 locally, we have both styles in stock.
