    What makes are the throttle linkage and manifold?

    In fact, tell us all the kit you're using - pump, pressure reg, filters, etc etc...

    Cheers

    Very nice mate [:^:]


    Did you have trouble with the water pipe under the inlet manifold?


    Also I hope you've got that very shinney throttle set-up adjusted properly as those carb spindles are about as strong as twiglets!

    Hi Velly,
    How did you deal with the inlet manifold water jacket supply? The reason I ask is a mate has a Audi 80 that we have to shove a set of twin Dellortos on - we have absolutlely everything we need but he just needs to get off his ass!! Go figure? Anywayz I had our machine shop boys lathe up a threaded bypass adaptor but did you do the same or just blank it off?

    There is'nt an inlet manifold water jacket supply.

    Outlet pipe between cyl 2 and 3 tho.

    ABF outlset pipe is downward pointing and off to the side. Can help aid manifold clearance.
