I’ve got two at home I can measure off my plane. Likely original, ( one has a old data plate on it) , I’ll measure , if it fits its yours.

Him, interesting the one you got your hands on is different. They, the original, and even the new "super" versions, are made to an AN standard (different between standard and "super") but my experience has been and I believed, all the mounting holes the same. You shouldn't have any trouble coming ups with tubes that fit. I think half of us have a collection of them.mmcmillan2 wrote:Well shoot, I got my hands on a venturi, but it’s 1.5” square mounting holes don’t match my existing 1.5”x2.0” holes (currently filled with rivets).
Well…we all knew YOU were weird.4583C wrote:I went to check the two that came off 83C and was surprised to find one is 1.5”x1.5” and the other 1.5” x 2”.
Yea, I’m surprised mine is different. A local mechanic is going to look through his pile of spares and see if he can help. He may also have another pulley but I’m not sure I want to stick with that design. I’m lucky that pulley half ejected downs instead of up into the windshield.4583C wrote:I went to check the two that came off 83C and was surprised to find one is 1.5”x1.5” and the other 1.5” x 2”.
