right tried to get a quote on how much my insurance would go with with twin 40s rang them up told them going to fit twin carbs its a engine proformance modification ect ect sorry dont have anything like that on the data base so gave them all the other names for them, still nothing then i asked if it isnt on your database does that mean i can put them on they said if i had a crash my insurance would be void becuase there not delcared, so basicly i cant but them on becuase there not declared but cant declare them becuase they dont know what they are
so basicly what have otheer people told there insuance for them to understand what they are, my insurer is quinn

just tell them youve put an uprated carb on if theyre going to be weird, therefore you have declared the uprated engine mod shouldnt think it would matter whether its a single or twin
yeh i agree, just say you have an engine mod, and if they ask what area just say the fueling input or something.
should be specific enough for them i would of thought

Ring them and say "Hi, I wish to cancel my insurance as I'm changing to Sky" lol
Seriously though, would it not have made sense to ask them what categories they DO have for engine modifications? Quids on they'll have an "engine modification, performance >10%" category or something to that effect. Pretty sure thats what Admiral/Elephant/etc use.
Insurance companies don't necessarily have specific mods in their system (unlike specialist companies such as Flux/HIC, Sky, etc who just take a list of mods and go from that). So, for example, they wouldn't have "17 inch chrome alloys" but they would have "aftermarket alloy wheels". Dig?
As Razorjack states, Say it's a engine modification that'l give up to a 10% performance increase.
