B4 you jump in and buy one,shop around 4 prices.
if its an 1800 in stock form then a 30/70 will do the trick nicely.
If you think it already has a cam them pull it out and have a look at the firewall end of the cam.If it has numbers stamped on it then it is "lumpy" to some extent and a speed shop should b able to tell you what grind it is

you can get webers off about xf(square rust bucket ones) ford 4.1. as far as ive researched (not 100% on that) also you should go to www.giant.net.au/users/wight/index.htm i put this place in my favourites as it shows in detail how to put a weber in place of the old niki carb and how to port your inlet manifold for it (dead easy).
