I see you've downgraded from a Fanta coil to some kind of high-energy coil ...

 Re: spot the difference ??
yeah, split conduit good but fiddly tho
not sure which wire you're refering to 1200rc .... the thick red ones goin to the starter (it's a bit long) and the rest are in the conduit along the along the fire wall.
took it down to the mechanics today and gave it a bit of a squirt on the way ......
2nd gear pulling to around 70ml/hr at 8000rpm change gear foot to the floor and hang on wasn't adventurous enough to go for 8000rpm in 3rd ??
the new carbies and electtionic dizzy have made a huuuuuuge improvement

So It sounds like it's going good with the webers I wish I got to use them.

Enjoy.

all of the above and why are you comparing different cars? nothing is standard, they are all different after we fiddle with them

radiators out of an import 1.6l pulsar.
fits nice and supposedly the imports have smaller diameter connections than local made ?? so the hoses fit up good. the top hose is a 120y bottom hose cut sort of in half and the bottom hose is the 1200 bottom hose.

similar radiators in the local n14 pulsars to.
