How To Select An Amal Concentric Carburetor
Choosing a new carburetor for your vintage British motorcycle can be challenging and confusing as parts over the years often get changed
Although all Amal Concentric (MK1) carbs look the same, internally they are not
Understanding the challenges one may face, I was motivated to compile a simple yet effective chart below that will aide you when purchasing a new Amal Concentric carburetor from Classic British Spares or perhaps selecting an original carburetor for your application
We understand that this topic could be discussed in great lengths, however we will keep it short and to the point which will help “most” folks make the proper choice when seeking a new Amal Concentric carburetor
Before we go over our chart, we hope that you check your parts book, workshop manual and your manifold to help you identify what carb you may need
Workshop manuals and parts books
Did you know that a factory workshop manual and a factory parts book will list the proper carburetor that was fitted to a specific machine?
When in doubt, grab a workshop manual or a parts book for your year, make and model and find the carb size that was originally fitted to your machine

Manifolds
Should you have the proper manifold on your motorcycle, it is important to measure the inside diameter to obtain a reading either in metric (for Amal Concentric carbs) or imperial / inch (for Amal Monobloc carbs)
Using the measurement from your manifold, it will aide you in finding the proper carb - please keep in mind that some manifolds taper and some manifolds may have a different bore size than the carb that would normally be fitted
Those that do not have an external or "bolt on" manifold, you can measure the opening of the inlet port (shown above)
Cylinder head casting numbers
Often times hidden and hard to find, a casting number can provide you with much information in regards to the identity of the given head and also the port size
Always check your casting number first to find the original origins of your cylinder
Your specific application
Having good judgment also helps when making a carb selection
Knowing your engine specs and overall condition (stock, modified, cams, pistons, etc) may give you a good idea as to what can be fitted to your engine
