just remember you can't have any side wall of the tyre sticking out for a cert, is only a certain amount at the top of the flare, depends on the engineer. some say 100mm, others say 200 .. for a wof it's fine (unless it's majorly sticking out)

Already have the cert..

holy crap theres some mods going on there :) nice work! looks like the manifold fits nicely under the engine cover being shorter like that!!
No matter what the question is, the answer is always more horsepower!

Yeah she went great..much more responsive  :o ...better up hills...but not enough  ;D...rays just bought a BRC blos gas carbi with a variable venturi from ebay... will try that next ...then a turbo  ;D ;D ;D.
 We drive the freeway to Sydney often and she dies back to 100 on the steep hills...on the flat rays had her up to 130k no prob with the 5 speed! opps did i say that ! ;D ;D ;D ;D .
he cant help it, its in his blood racing cars and making them go fast  ::)....only this time its a 40 yr old van...we want to get up and go with out the hassle of trying to squeeze a V8 in.

ohhh yeah the engine  cover has had its second modification for the efi to fit...so we have found another standard one and would like to modify it so it can fit all the carbi & filters etc that ray trays and also so we can put cup holders on the cover and make it more stylish and useful on the inside  ;D ;D ;D otherwise its turning into something like the hulk LOL!
Cheers Wendy & Ray

i forgot to say the first mod to the left of the cover was for the vary jet petrol carbi...but its long now and shes running on straight LPG thru a 42mm gas venturi ...the difference was significant but.......watch this space  ;D

you running the computer for the engine?
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"
