Update on my Brumby

Post by **TOONGA** » Fri Apr 16, 2010 10:11 pm

Im not re-jetting the carby at this point as it came off a 186 red motor which is a 2.8ltr. so its only .8 of a litre bigger (Im drowning says Frank) the dizzy is from a mark 3 escort which is the same size base as the subaru dizzy there are pictures of the dizzy in this thread but I will take photos when its plugged into the motor.
