  5. i just spoke to a guy about using a v6 capri carby and he said it would work but anything below 3k of revs it would be gutless untill you get right up the revs then you will get power. he said the better option to do would be to use a 2L cortina carby if i am not going to heavily mod the engine which i wont at this stage
  6. injection is too expensive for me at this stage i think ill stick to full exhaust system and lower it first then maybe carby, will all depend on how much i get for my wagon

  12. i am looking at buying a mk2 gt cortina and am considering, modifying the engine to get a little more power out of it, what would be the best way to do this with say a budget of $1000 - $1200 if its possible? also what are some places in auckland that do really good reliable work for cortinas?
