this is a good upgrade if you are keeping it stock.

you can bypass your artichoke if that's the problem

you could fit a weber Twin choke off any crossflow . Will make an improvement in performance.

I bought a twin Carb for it but it didnt fit, just couldnt close the bonnet just sat up slightly too high!....( BUGGER ) lol

Honestly the amount of things that dont fit my Mk2 Estate its so frustrating, from door cards, to wings! Saloons are so much easier to maintain! lol

Give southern carbs a call they will sell a rebuild kit for approx 44 quid

Thanks very much mate

think 4 door escort door cards fit, and the wings are unique to the van and estate only!
