Stick with the 32/36 but change jets. They are a nice carb and I wouldnt imagine its too hard to find details on what jets will be a good match.

Do you need to buy a manifold to suit? I know where one is.

bEEn a long timE thErE sunshinE.

wElcomE back.

yeah Ive just never tried without it. Might give it a go next time. If we are being honest Im not the best at cleaning the gun to spec above haha.

If the old engine was 1100 or 1300 then the rad will prob be too small.

1600 youll be ok.

Either way just plumb it up and atch temps.

Gaz

you just run none Spence?

Even with filtering paint I still get lil bits of shit in it on occasion... prob left over from the last job haha.

PS  like the minimalist gutter/water tank connection

I had one done on an old car at VTNZ and it was absolutly a shit report missing basic things Id look for on an old car.... said car here is not old though so may be ok.

Checked the filter in it?

I replace them at least every semi sizable job.

Do cam before you put engine in car if your planning it in nesr future.... itherwise ya gotta pull engine out or head off to do in car.

1. As above.

You can use the std 4speed if u dont want to use the sierra 5speed. Another thread on here tells ya how. think author is Raizer.

2. As above

3. Extractors plus exhaust. Fr32 grind cam. Clean ports up. Jetted 32/36 carb. Thatll be a bit better and cost fuck all. Balance rotating assembly while your at it if engine coming apart.

If it were me thats all id do otherwise to get to the next step you start needing to spend $ on clutch, serious porting and twin carbs... at that stage id look into turbo or snother modern engine.

How do you even fit in there?

and if you have a roof shout you must get strippers for poles in gge.

Pump. 044 is heaps. The Bosch 910 would be sweet as. Make sure its not a ripoff pump though.

VL Commy will also suit but they getting a bit scarce now and old.

I agree, unless your racing or drifting then a surge tank may not be required.

Id do Fuel the other way around to below as the current NA fuel line wont be rated to the pressure of EFI.

- Use the existing line as the return.

- Run new EFI line for feed. 8mm will be heaps. Supercheap rubber EFI hose is cheapest I've found.

- Depending on tank you may need a new fitting welded in for the new line.

When running fuel line think about where the exhaust runs.

Just an 044 inline in existing feed and chuck in a new hose for return.

Be easy to find a way of getting the return back into the tank easily.

Yeah feel ya on that one!

Good size, same as my mates and they pretty usable ... if not full of shit! Height bit low for mezzy?

how many m²?

Nice handrail on mobile

Fuck they are pretty simple aye. Did you consider install yourself?

Watching

Just for record I have previously done my own rust repairs after being pulled up on WOF at VTNZ (outrigger on Cortina). They were happy for me to do the repair as long as I left it exposed so they could see the work prior to passing the recheck.

That was 3 years ago, things may have changed.

Cheers man, that seems to be the going. $20 a rim.

Alltourqe is sorting me out for the fitting of two and I think I'm off to Palmy Sat morn to pickup and have fitted another 2.

Gaz
