leave it as it is. You'll have a hard enough time keeping the head gasket from blowing as it is.

A rising rate fuel pressure regulator and electric fuel pump capable of over 10psi is what you need. You need to understand that a pressure difference between the fuel pressure and air pressure must be maintaned to achieve good mixtures. Take for example a N/A carby setup fuel pressure is about 3psi greater than manifold pressure ever is. So when boosting you need to increase fuel pressure accordingly to boost. 7psi boost should have about 10psi fuel pressure etc etc. i have not had any problems with the carby not holding pressure or draining the fuel bowl (i drilled the needle orrifice out to about 2.5mm and adjust the float level after of course)

As far as the hole on the 32/36 weber that is a fuel bowl vent or something and i found it best to block it off. i am running the same tubro and same carb as you and have had no problems with lean mixtures (if anything i over did the jets and it runs quite rich on secondary.)

I am running a holley blue electric pump with a malpassi r/r reg for a carb. I also modified the tank to have a 5/16" pickup and put a filter (plastic ryco one) before the pump and a Z200 after the pump.

The bolt hole should be the same size i think. its a thinner bolt that helps with oil feed.

now on carsales.com

it would be interesting to know it's history. Josh mate if you want it back it's for sale! I don't really wanna sell it, but times have changed for me and i need a bigger car. I'd really like to sell this before i buy anything else.

Yeah i'f you've done a head gasket you will have a misfire when the car is first started. a bit of "milk" on the oil cap is caused by condensation of the air in the crankcase. nothing major to worry about, if you want though, get a new cork washer to put around the oil cap. and bend the legs a bit to make it seal tight.

but still try the compression and pressure tests. you could have blown a gasket...

yeah. thats the one. there have been a few owners on here now...

this is the one i now own and yes it works perfectly.

I never planned on keeping this car for long, so i believe that now is the best time to sell it.

For sale i have a 1972 1200 Sedan. i bought this car from wagga wagga about 3 months ago. Since then i have had quite alot of work done on it.

The engine was reconditioned first off (all parts have receipt).

All parts put in (which i got at cost price) from when bought the car totaled over $1200.
parts include
Rear wheel bearings, radiator hoses, link bushes, thermostat housing, welsch plugs, big end and main bearings, piston rings, full gasket set, clutch, water pump, 2x 185/65R13 tyres, radiator cap, bond ultimate battery, coolant, hose clamps, head recondtioning work (lap valves, welsch plug, guides, inserts, valve stem seals, welding, surface grind, drill oil gallery to suit early model block). Engine has done 3000mile since rebuild and has just had oil changed again. A tune up was done at the time of rebuild (plugs, points, coil, fuel filter). Gearbox oil was replaced too. It was fitted with an electric fuel pump when i bought it. Radiator has been reco by natrad.

Car is in very neat condition throughout. No rust in chassis anywhere. No slop in steering. No rattles! Drives like a new one.

Interior has new carpet and front seats. Seat covers. I installed a pioneer stereo but i will be taking the pioneer headunit out but will probably leave the speakers in.

Exterior has airbrushing. Some parts are a bit 'scaley' (sills are the worst) but is in good condition all the same. 13" Mags.

Car will be sold without RWC, only because it is easier for the buyer to get one. The only thing that would need to be addressed is the wipers. Since owning the car they have become a bit slow. however a RWC offficer may turn a blind eye to such a thing. As far as under the car goes, it only required the link bushes, tyres and rear wheel bearings for me to r/w it (2 months ago). the rego (Dec 2009) is included.

i will post pictures after next weekend if there is interest. There are some getting around on this site anyway.

Price: For the work done to the car and its condition i will be looking for $3000 with rego. can sell without rego.

Try checking the oil level. if there is enough oil then remove the pressure sender and blow compressed air into it, and watch what your gauge does (or if the light goes out). Oil filter could be partially blocked, remove and replace. If this doesn't solve anything then perhaps remove sump and oil pick up, reseal flange of oil pick up and blow out gause filter. how much oil pressure do you get with the engine running?
