Looking great. What size/make of fan is that? Or is it the one you had on the inner wing? |

About your subframe, it is not obvious (for me) if you enlarged the holes to be able to remove the driveshafts with the pot joints.

I found making the solid jet holder and getting rid of the bi-version helped stabilise the fuelling when I ran the HIF on my Supercharger setup. I got the idea from a post on here. I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Was that my carb mate? If so I only rebuilt that about 100 miles ago lol.. Also try to keep hold of that needle and spring combo - took me ages to get the fueling right for the 1380. Edited by MarkGTT on 19th Dec, 2010. |
