  1. on a std 1.3 x/f .... doubtfull on a full race motor .... certainly in between ..... "worth" depends on what you want from them. for me personaly , i get the pleasure of learning all about fuel inj and management....... others see that as a burden incidently, to answer the original question - the throttle body is basicaly a valve in the intake which simply controls the airflow into the engine, it doesnt need injectors as these can be elsewhere in the intake. carbs can be used as t/b's with mods to block fuel etc. most aftermarket bodies come with an injector fitment to simplify instalation and their use is summed up above.
  2. i believe its similar to galvafroid. im using zinga as i go with my resto. it doesnt adhere that well but, if you brush it off you find the steel benieth has taken on a layer of zinc. makes miging a sod tho i plan on using it and leaving put on the bits i wont get at in the future.
  3. whilst i can see the conection to pendine, its a fairly limited venue and the sands are no longer accessible to cars. it is however only 15 mins more to TENBY which is a very nice place to spend an afternoon (if you like small picturesque harbour towns ) just a thought.
  4. i guess as long as you have about 2mm "washer" thickness it should be ok ?
  5. i know what you mean there................. and i agree. the 3 door is a classic ford.end of. however i think the issues that people have are about what you are interested in. if c.f. was full of corsairs and model t's every month it would soon fold...... its a fact that they have to put an escort on the cover to hit the best sales figs...... as for me, are they a classic .... yes, do i want them in c.f ...... no! but i can live with the buyers feature since as gary said theres only so much to print.
  6. well since it would not be used on the road ,,,,, i reckon you could.i think and as for staining things........... just a wives tail. but the ministry dont just look at the colour , they do chemical tests, so i would guess that if they dip you they will find it.
  7. how do you spell day jaaa vooo i thought he seemed to have toned it down lately tbh.
  8. in case this is of any use, i recall that the calipers on the 1600E struts are opposite to std tina mk2 struts ie at back not front or visa versa
  9. was that your trailer stuff full of wheels for sale ?
  10. looking better all the time people see you all there.
  11. i wont be the only one in a " river 240" then? i hope i can find it in a sea of them when pissed
  12. very easily ! i hear that gloss household paint is good ?
  13. dont take this personaly, but ive never been able to get my head around why people pay large sums to be disfigured
  14. i would think the main question is " can you get a box build with these ratios for less than 1k " the sort of person that builds a no cost concours rs1800 will want it, cost no issue ................ unless he can get one built cheaper.
