you don't want an EFI fuel pump - Webers like less than 4psi fuel pressure. You want high volume, not high pressure. There's also no need for a rising rate reg with a drawthru setup.

This is grouse!
Nice pick up L18, some good info!

Would you put prices on all of the DIY stuff Chris? Roughly, just out of curiosity, I have some idea but I'd be interested to see a total build cost from scratch!

Nice work, will this be going into a car, is sow what?

Looks really neat all round
plenum might be a bit big

Looks like a single Downdraft Stromberg with one of these filters
can also fit with heaps of room left over.

Top work there.
Have you done measurements to see if she fits in the engine bay?
A good DIY job is great to look at and get the mind ticking. Looking forward to you posting a vid or pictures of the install
