got a little bored today so i decided to freshen up the engine bay. i still need a little more paint to finish off but im overall happy with the result. its not for everyone, but it was a cheap and effective way to do it and if i scratch it with something its easy fixed

anywho, before:



after:

hey evan.. great to see you keeping at it
and still putting a heap of effort into your
beast...

but whens it gonna be back on the road?

Now its harder to see any oil leaks, white is the way to go! As long as your happy

hey ange yeah im getting right back into me ute. broke up with the mrs not long ago so i have money to spend on it again cant believe how expensive women are. should be on the road soon, couple things to do

*Things to do*
- get correct lower manifold made for weber
- hydrolic clutch set-up
- new carpet for interior
- remote oil filter
- air filter for weber
- cut and weld oil filler tube so filter can fit
- exhaust changed (way to loud at the moment, well over 120db)
- find new cheap girlfriend to have sex with
- couple other small things in engine bay (hoses etc.)

then we go cruising

is the remote oil filter to accomodate the webber also?

nuh it will fit fine without a filter, but id rather not suck up bugs, rocks and small children into the weber so im gonna fit a filter. but to do that defaintly have to go the remote oil filter.

hmmm you have to mod the oil filler also??

seems like a bit of work to mount the carb that way...

why not ditch the upper manifold and mount it upright?

edit: or better still ive got a perfect nikki carb that'll fit just fine complete with standard and ramflo filters that ill do u a deal on for the webber

yeah already looked into that, but because its a sidedraught weber i cant mount it like a downdraught, but thats ok. ive got no problem doing the extra mods. ive already organised the remote oil filter and k&n air filter. just need to cut and paste the filler.

edit: haha nice try

ahhhh ok.. thought it was an ida... or is it?

havent had much experience with webber's
or carbs in general...

but im about to...

looking foreward to seeing yours up and going... keep it up
