don't think there's any carbon... really good compression and no smoke, ever... Used to run it in bikes but forgot if it was any good Might keep the merc happy... at worst, I'll have to rebuild it! Cheers!

Can it be done? what are the pros and cons?

My parts merc has 2 cables too... but then they join into one

curved teflon-style cable guides? In a lazy arc (like motorbike throttle-cable bits where they join the throttle) like the pics in this link http://www.jpcycles.com/Tech/Articles/Cables.aspx and a floor mounted hand-brake with some minor adjustments to pull up from in front of the pivot-point. edit... HQ-J holden style... right side of drivers seat...

I wanna see it rollin wif the flowers!!!

get an electric from repco (about $105 IIRC), pull the arm out of the latest broken one and use the old pump to fill the hole... We done that on a mates chevette and if ya hide the electric and run some dummy hoses to the mechanical one, no prick will even know... took 20 mins. edit: and if ya dummy the pump and the diaphragm is fucked, pull it out and replace it with some gasket paper/rubber/goo/whatever ya wanna use

PM'd ya right back!!!

$30 plus freight... for both... let me know what ya think

Just remembered that a guy at work has a bumper... off a 79 hatch... sitting at work doin fuck all. Will ask tomorrow if he wants to get rid of it if you want

Nice find! that nose is "different" What's it need to run? dude at work has a coupla old bits floating...

Hirequip p'ram has an opening... (not me leaving)

you're an arty cunt aren't ya... steal camera and take pics of mine.. Last photo looked like it does when you accelerate!!!

you only mist it on, on the last coat of base to even the metallic out. That was what I was gettin at... didn't have the energy to explain that at the time... Dust onto a wet coat... nevermind... I'm shit with words Oh, btw, never had any complaints at kenworth usin a "dusting" technique (even with a harlequinn show-truck) wouldnt recommend "wet" metallics with acrylic. unless you've done it before/have good gun technique Matty-B will be fine and waterproof if you use an acrylic lacquer (top-coat style) as opposed to a matty-b primer or enamel (fine if you wanna sand it all off later)

Normally with any engine that fucks around until boots-in = spark... somewhere I wasn't just hangin shit

evinrude outboard??? Leads would be my first choice tho

put a merc project thread up!!! Pleaaase

Fuck me!! that's beautiful!!! I want to see it!!!! Thanks for the photos... I'm gunna have to get my shit together now... I feel ashamed to have my merc in such shit condition... mind you, you should see the other one!! btw... I think the finny should have it's own build thread!

Wont make any difference to the carb/intercooler setup issues. Personally I perfer a blower to turbos for the daily driver yeah, but I already have belt clearance issues.... blow-through turbo looks like the go for space at the mo... and spewin on the photos... I wanted to see some detail... any individual shots not made as a big jpeg?
