a 10:1 cr motor wants to be pulling 12 - 13 bar under crancking really 180 - 200 psi is what it idealy should be
all the VW's have gone bar 1.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

little update been playin with carbs and it seems unless the carbs are both pulling the same air it dont run properly which makes sense lol so got it as close as i could by ear seems much better

its not smoking much now only seems to be on tickover and smells quite fuely so im guessing it has the wrong idle jets in it ??

so its getting there  :smug:
