hey guys, have not been on this forum for a few months now,

i got to the point where i had enough of fixing my kombi and then something else breaking so for the past 5 months the bus has sat in the garage.
But i got back into it after a good break and am bolting a new Holley 350cfm to the freshly machined manifold and have a new polished water pump going on too.

ill be doing burnouts again in no time at all!

ill keep some photos comin to keep this forum a bit liveley hey haha!!

Cant believe you left the old SU's on to start with but I suppose if its working to start with dont stuff around. Have been told they are actually a reasonable carby and can be flowed well if you are an expert in tuning the damn things.

Good to see you back in action.
