dont know of anyone other than lurch and me for the ocean road.
nice and close to home for me though.

where'd you have in mind for a melb cruise, as these days anywhere round melb is pretty much a day trip for me

i'll be keen depending on numbers ????

stanza's the way to go
easy upgrade, easy work and cheap. just make sure you get the ones with the girlok calipers though, and if you can get the whole front assembly ... strut tops to control arm pivot bolts and a set of 120y radius rods.
you'll end up with about 30mm or so wider track and more negative camber. so if your tyres are close to the guards already you may need to get the lips rolled and the guards pumped out a bit.

i'd stick with the original styling .... will always suit the car then no matter whats going on around it
you can always add a few subtle creature comforts here and there and keep it looking oldschool

4nik8s rotauta would've been nice to see and maybe ooonnne day that twin turboof 1200rc's 'll be running spot on but there's gotta be someone else out there ????????

i'll back up lurch's comments on the condition of the road ... alot of the CORNERS have been resurfaced and the camber of the road adjusted for better cornering speeds .........

fare enough, the pulsar ones a good cheap fix but for what i've spent/spending on the engine i'm going to hold out for a bosch unit. going for high reving and plenty of fuel to burn i'd like the stronger spark the next issue what coil to run with it ???? been told by the auto elec to stay clear of those little high energy coils and stick with the standard oil cooled high energy, less chance of it over heating and breaking down with high revs ??

alright .... spoke to 2 auto elecs today and the guys going to be tuning my sedan; out come is the bosch bluebird unit feral offers would be the best value for money you can do. better spark and easier to setup.
the pulsar one is a cheaper starting point but if something goes wrong parts are worth a fotune and not always readily available.
regraphing should be done on either to suit engine, cam, carb specs and the type of driving expecting to be done.
vacuum advance is niether here nor there as it really only comes into play when cruising lightly on the throttle.

looks like i'm going to have to start saving those hard earned dollars

the plates you've soldered together is the one base plate that keeps getting refered to, ithink??.

i'm pretty much looking for the same result as freak .... apart from i need to get my vac advance gone, the dizzy regraphed before i put on new carbs ... so i figured instead of playing with the points dizzy i'd go for eletronic and get the higher powered spark to
tomorrow i think i'm going to talk to the auto elec and the guys that are going to be tuning my datto, find out their opinions.
i'll post any new info i get for you all to see

electronic 'anythings' in an engine bay are all another science for me ..... would an auto elec do all the work for the conversion or is there someone else for the internal work on the dizzy ????
sorry for asking so many q's but am interested in this conversion..... ferals would be fantastic but don't have the cash at the moment
