filthy one Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 Couple more things im going to fit an SLR Torana style scoop to the bonnet. Moulded not bolted on . I figure its a staunch car so it would set it off more. Also forgot to mention had it dyno tuned after rebuilding the carb came up bloody good in the finish. Started out with 273HP needed bigger jets & float levels adjusted along with vacum advance adjusted after rectifying these we ended up with 317 HP ATW 385 F/Pnds Torque Discussion topic is here. viewtopic.php?f=18&t=16342 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
