Title: twin carbs, throttle bodies and split rims
Post by: benji mk2 on 21 March 2005, 12:42
So guess which smart arse just got him self a fancy new job?? Found out on Thursday and gonna be getting lots more cash  :grin:
 As a result Ive decided to spend all my new found wealth on my baby!!  The engine work has begun: Full lighten and balance, bored out to 2ltr lots of head work and a sports R Kent camshaft. By big problem now is do i fit twin 40's or throttle bodies? My understanding is that throttle bodies although more expensive will be much more manageable. Does anyone have any thoughts/experience with either of these systems.

  Next questions what offset would i need to fit 15X8" BBS split rims?? I want to get some but with bigger outer rims so i can get a bit of a deep dish.....

Many thanks to any one who can help,

  Ben
