hey lowlancer, got any more info on bead blasting? thanks for the heads up sykoV6

me and my dad are working on our cars. we have stripped out his, the 57 ford Anglia and mine is going for the same treatment later this arve. Instead of actually sanding it down we wanna get it sand blasted instead. well at least the inside, just to get into the hard to reach places etc. is this a good plan? and where do i go in auckland? price is important but workmanship has to be decent!

petrol for inside the block, doesnt rust and degreaser inside a block wouldnt be my first choice aye... just incase

why do u want factory? just go to appco and tell them what you want...

kink = not good alex

just make the carb bowl a bit bigger also, make it stick out of the bonnet so it gets awesome cooling

yeah, GO SUPERCHEAP!

i quite like them, nice and simple

bang on! you could also read fire hose instead of garden hose! works well

or have the man choke out 2/3 for the first 10-15 minutes... damn petrol is expansive that way

if your car runs fine you dont some cars do need them

i know. but would it be a mission to make it carb?

but ill either have to put in the ECU or the carbs and i like carbs

why would it be silly? it beats having to wire up a ECU

back on topic, how much leon? well semi-on-topic... i dont like EFI how hard is it to but some carbs on a 4agze?

do i need to remind everyone how many tv's fridges, microwaves etc muzzie has in his house? i hope not cuz i forgot most but its some crazy number for 1 house

how about we just all use the ze block... bugger n/a

go standard carbs

and you might need to alter the firewal a lil bit

little things WILL come up that need to be replaced. good luck though

rev guage wire is generally green but then again, this is a mitsi so i wouldnt know

if you know the right people you can do it cheaper. problem is than nowaday's some people will charge $500+ for a T50 for example engine+box, 800 mounts, 200 diff, 1000 suspention, 600 exhauset, 350 cert, 450 those are just a few things you'll need. thats about $3500 right there and then you'll need brakes, clutch, radiator with plumbing, the numerous amount of beers too shout your mates but remember, when you start it you'll end up spending WAY more... might as well set some new plugs, new leads, oil, filters, new clutch, release bearing, pressure plate and the list goes on and on and on

just making a short version of the site, itll cost $5000 if you do most (if not all) work yourself and will take at least a month longer then you initially expect. good luck

sweet as

just take your time, i'll be busy for the next couple of days with work etc so i wont have time
