been a bit slack with updating lately, but mainly due to my frantic try to get the car ready for worthersee (leaving friday night!)
got my thackery washers in the post today, so ill fit them an see if they help make it run a bit better, got a silly misfire which seems to be from the carbs being shook to death all the time haha.

So yeah, worthersee was an amazing experience.

we were thinking along similar lines, except it would exit INFRONT of the wheel (passenger side) lol
I just welded the manifold to the downpipe to stop it blowing so much but there is a freakin head stud broke off so it still blows there . Might attempt to drill it out tomorrow but im sick of drilling out head studs to be honest lol. |
