This Pipercross PX600 Blank Baseplate is for automotive enthusiasts and mechanics looking to adapt Pipercross PX600 dome or box filters to a wide variety of carburettors or throttle bodies, particularly Weber DCOE and Dellorto DHLAs. Its key benefit is enabling custom filter fitment where standard solutions are unavailable. A potential caveat is that the universal blank plate requires custom cutting for non-standard applications, demanding precision and care during installation.

This blank baseplate is designed to be adaptable to a vast range of carburettors and throttle bodies, including popular types like Weber DCOE and Dellorto DHLA. For universal fitment, the key is matching the centre-to-centre measurement of your mounting points to what can be achieved by cutting the blank plate.
The 'Blank' designation means it is a universal plate. For many popular applications, it may be a direct fit or require minimal trimming. However, for custom or less common carburettors/throttle bodies, you will need to cut and shape the plate to suit your specific setup.
You will likely need basic metalworking tools such as a jigsaw, drill, files, and potentially a metal snips or rotary tool for precise cutting and finishing. Ensure safety precautions are taken when using these tools.
No, this product is the baseplate only. You will need to purchase a compatible Pipercross PX600 dome or box filter separately.
Ensure the mounting surface on your carburettor or throttle body is clean and flat. Securely bolt the baseplate, and ensure the PX600 filter then seals properly against the baseplate itself. A gasket may be advisable for some applications, though not typically included with the baseplate.
Yes, if the throttle body has a suitable mounting pattern that can be adapted by cutting the blank baseplate, it can potentially be used with fuel-injected throttle bodies. The key is the physical mounting dimensions.
Verify the carburettor/throttle body model and consult the compatibility table. If it's a custom application, carefully re-measure and re-cut the baseplate, ensuring precise alignment.
Ensure the baseplate is flat and securely fastened. Check that the filter is correctly seated and sealed against the baseplate. Inspect the baseplate for any cracks or damage that might compromise the seal.
Use appropriate metal cutting tools suitable for the baseplate material. Ensure you have a secure way to hold the plate while cutting. File down any sharp edges after cutting.
Setup:
Compatibility:
This baseplate is designed to fit a wide range of carburettors and throttle bodies, including but not limited to Weber DCOE and Dellorto DHLA types. It is crucial to verify the 'centres' measurement of your specific carburettor or throttle body against the dimensions provided by Pipercross or by comparing with known compatible applications. The universal blank plate offers the potential for fitment on custom or one-off applications if the user can adapt it to their specific needs.
Care:
Maintain the baseplate by periodically checking for any signs of damage or wear. Ensure it remains securely fastened. The primary care will be for the attached Pipercross air filter, which should be cleaned and re-oiled according to Pipercross's recommended maintenance schedule for their PX600 filters to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
