    Carbs

    I'm not sure what 32DFM is it might be the same but most of the late weber carbs on eskies are 32/36 DGAVs ... The 28/36 is definantly the better carb i have been told alot more tunable etc even though it is smaller. they are quite rare also
  3. Yeah why didn't you just leave the accelerator cable in that was there on the 1300?... thats what i did.. then just use the mount that fits the weber inlet. works a treat
  4. Ohh yes that van is the bees, love the wheels too, i wish i could get a set down here

    FORD 1600

    Only the very early 1600 Xflows have chambered heads.. most are flat, with bigger valves, GT cam grind and as said before better followers... the ghia ones are the same. and yeah i think gt's had weber carbs and the exhaust manis are extractors.

    Reverse Gear

    Not the clutch.. all the clutch does is disengage the engine with the g/b and it wouldn't matter what gear you are trying to select it is always the same..... and even when it is engaged you can still move thegearstick into allof the gears without to much effort... sounds like something wiwerd happened in your gb....

    quick steer rack

    A rack and pinion setup in simple terms is like a gear and a shaft with teeth cut into it... so to make a quick rack you just need a taller ratio. So the ratio between the turning of the wheel and how far the rack moves horizontally is larger than normal. but any friction on the wheels will be increased by the same ratio. Get what i mean? I think thats rigt anywyas.
  21. How did he put it on a switch!? Id be keen on knowing a bit more about that setup aye... what about a supercharged Xflow?
  22. Mean... And you it woul dhave had apinto in it as all rs2000s came with them.
