Why
Being bog stock ,i rekon you would be better off getting the shafts rebushed and then have them rebuilt correctly ..cheaper and they work very well
when done properly..pm me if you want a place to do the job correctly
Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

Failing that go with kad's.... in fact I'd still buy and install kad's if I had room in my budget... they do a lot of good on a stock 2L, and if ya
use big-valve heads (stock 1800 heads will do nicely as the valves are biggger than 2L ones), and put on a well-designed extractor zorst it becomes a
totally different motor!
It all depends upon ya budget more than anything.

ahaha sorry pete, i wish my pocket approved lol, i wish, but this is really my only option atm, since my stock carbs are not really what im after so
id prefer something else, but my choice is minimal as u can gather., i really need a set so i can get my bus on the road again.
