Happy Christmas all. Got some miles in around the New Forest during the last few days, weather has been surprisingly good. Set up the idle mix with easy on this carb assisted with a vac meter and a trusty old tachometer attached in the engine bay, runs well. There is a significant cut down on the po...

Fyi, I invested in an AVS2 500cfm, Roadcraft are doing them at only £350, awesome price. Now fitted and running. Will find a dry unsalted roaded day and feed back.

That design makes more sense, will look into one of these.

The car is only just on the road so i am yet so see / notice any running issues; seems ok on the few miles i have done thus far. I need to do some winter fetteling so will take the good advice and but in a wide band sensor or two just after the headers. I dispensed with a balance pipe and i have 2 s...

The engine flows well, is was built for the Tuscan challenge series, but I may need to go to a 500, we will see. Getting the headers out is a PITA for boss welding, may be able to get to it well enough in situ. Thanks for the inputs.

Should add, it is a 4.5.

600cfm and an edelbrock performer manifold.

I didn't put any lambda probe threaded ports in my headers, unfortunately....

Evening all. I am based near Southampton and would like to get my car rolling road tuned. The vehicle is an mgb running a tvr big valve v8 with an edelbrock carb so will just be timing, carb jetting and idle mixture that need attending to. Can anyone recommend a reputable local company who will not ...

I have a facet silver top pump that outputs 4psi. Running a 4.5 big valve and edelbrock 600.

No issues, all runs well.

Why? For £25 I simply couldn't resist. It is a road car and is just about finished, I will be doing track days and perhaps hill climbs. I don't have a strict need for this but I do like to play with stuff so I picked this bargain up. I'll leave it on the shelf until I do something with forced induct...

Hi guys, I picked up an unused Edelbrock water injection system at the Beaulieu Autojumble at the weekend, it's boxed but never used. Didn't come with an installation set of instructions though :( Anyone got experience of this? Old piece of kit but I guess may be useful to gain some ignition advance...

Hi all, goal for this weekend on my Sebring v8 is to finish the wiring for the fuel pumps (one high volume feeding a swirl pot and a high pressure pump taking from that). After that I will be running out of excuses not to start it. :lol: So a relay question. A simpler wiring solution for my situatio...

Thanks guys!

Evening all! As above in the title, believe that the cover is an SD1 unit. I am using a pump base to permit me to move the oil filter to a remote location in my MGB. I think the thread is PROBABLY metric and M6 but before I run out and buy a load of bolts and get it wrong 3 times :D wanted to see if...

I had one shipped recently, no oil, bellhousing or brackets. It weighted in at 47kg including wrapping.
