bloody useless lol
If you want to have a crack at one, go right ahead, i'll happily test it :) Lol
pass, if i had time to funk around doing things like that, would of had my engine fitted by now lol
Finally got the gaskets and bits I ordered, so got on with getting the engine re-built up.
Got cambelt kit on and fitted, after a wee problem with the tensioner not holding still

Pretty much ready to fit.
Planning on fitting the weekend after pv.
all looks good ad. bet you cant wait to fit it! will be nice and quick!
but defo get some carbs on it in the future, i heard mine for the first time in a while yesterday and tere awsome as you no!
Cheers Lew.
Yeah, i'll deffo miss the carb noise, hence why i might save them for a rainy day,Lol.
Lookin good ad! i reckon you'll be wel chuffed with it.
On the inlet front, i once had a mantzel powerbox on the 1.4, and tbh the quality imo was shi*e. It fitted poorly, and the casting was crap. I reckon you could easily make one out of say, 4mm steel, and see the same results a a mantzel.
I was thinking of maybe going to a local engineering works with some drawings and seeing if they could make one up.
I'd probably see good power gains with 40s, but im back to the lower mpg etc situation then,Lol.
yeh defo keep yor carbs for a rainy day ; )
that would be nuts to drive i recon!
