paulhumphries Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 The only thing missing from the 1500 Dolomite engine (together with autobox) I intend fitting to the Herald I'm having is the air filter housing.I've been looking on eBay for Dolomite 1500, Spitfire & Midget but none seem to be offered.I'm not bothered about "originality" so can anyone tell me if an airbox off any other models will fit or can be adapted such as 1850 Dolomite, Vitesse, etc to the 1500 engine ?Thanks.Paul Humphries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 They do come up on eBay quite regularly. Keep checking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toledo Man Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Part numbers for the air cleaners are as follows:Dolly 1500: TKC1570Dolly 1850 (SU carbs): TKC327These are NOT interchangable despite both models having SU HS4 carbs.Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilnaz Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Fizzy I think you have a MkIII don't you so if your air boxes are air boxes they might well be for HS2s. They might be adapted to fit by using a dremel....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzy Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 i do have a mk3 but the egine is a mk4 for some reason. i wont be using them, so i might punt them on ebay unless somebody needs them. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toledo Man Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 The Spitfire 1500 & Dolly 1500 use the same engine & carbs so it follows that the air cleaner should be the same. Can anyone confirm the part number for a Spit 1500 air cleaner is the same as the Dolly 1500? (TKC1570) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieB Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Rimmers say yes TKC1570 for both. The early 1500 Spit to FH127151 is RKC4165 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
