I may be running but im tipping with bike carbs you will over take me pretty quickly. might have to look at twin side draughts for mine so i can keep up with you.
Bit of an update, been surfing ebay and got my hands on a gauge cluster with the tacho in it and also got black door cards and a black rear seat. Also found out what was wrong with the carbie, the base of it was warped so i got it machined and re jetted to suit the motor, i got it done at Twin cam Services in Seaford and i recommend him if you need parts or advice for Escorts or cortinas or capris and stuff.
Got a question, anyone know if you can get a 'drop tank' or a low slung fuel tank for an escort. I'v seen one but i cant find anyone who sells them, any suggestions?
Are they hard to tune or do they have a sweet spot and stay good?
Yeah im getting close, just getting the last few things done for a roadworthy then it should be all sweet, we were doing some wiring today and realized that the high beams aren't working at all and what seemed to be an easy job turned into a nightmare, lots of live wires that dont go anywhere and the dash lights are really dull for some reason haha but we are getting there.
Sweet, ill have to see them some time. Yeah i had a problem with the float sticking in the Weber thats on my 4wd made it flood continuously. Your car will fly once they are all good though.
Yeah the wiring sucks thats why i roped my dad into helping me haha. i was going to just go full reg because once this car is done it's going to be my daily driver. Can you do club reg on a daily?
Um not really to be honest, i spent some time about a week ago cleaning underneath and i washed it, repainted a few bits. I got it running pretty right now which is good but my attention has been on my Suzuki lately, i blew up the engine in November and since then iv been getting a new performance motor built and iv been fixing all those little things that i couldn't be stuffed doing when i was driving it. Ill post up some pics of the escort seeing as its actually clean at the moment and ill post some pics of the Suzuki as well for anyone who's interested.
