I've had heavier weights than that on the back of my 1200 sedan in the early '90s! Used to just load the back seat and boot up with weight (cable) first. Needed both feet on the brake to stop it though!

Hey Zord, that manifold was the original one that had the 'bige' treatment, blasted and welded up.

Been busy with life for the last couple of months, so annoying.

Will hopefully get a chance to work on the car this month.
So i'll have a shot at porting the manifold for the webers and installing them this week. The linkages were fun.. I'll prob be looking to move the 32/36 weber on once all is ok.

I have also started collecting for the next project...slapping a CAdet conversion into the ute.

Hmm, I think I hate redline. Had to do sooo much work to the mainfold just to make it fit.
But it is on and i'm happy, guess that is the main thing. Finished getting the DCOM's on this arvo, just gotta tune it after I set up the idle screw. Started it and it sounds great and so responsive.

Any guesses?

There is often additional work to get manifolds to fit, flange thicknesses, flanges fouling etc etc but if it's any consolation even Bpro manifolds need a bit of a tickle up to make fit nicely. It comes down to the flange profile of the headers as well.

As for power it's a hard one to pick without the list of specs on the same page but that cam has some decent lift (8mm) and the duration looks fairly broad too? Whats the ignition setup? (sorry if you mentioned it before).

Did Ernie sought your cam as well?
