Got the steering arms and ball joints fitted up.
temp mounted my new adaptor flange for the ITB's to the dellorto manifold.
Bit tight for fuel rail space, as it fouls a bit wih the throttle linkages, but I have brought some short length injectors which will hopefully create nough clearance.
not much else to report, other than my ECU has just been reconfigured and I now need to sort out my EDIS / ignitor setup, started on fuel system too.

Re: Kitchs 1200 Coupe
are they coby D1 headers Kitch? (There may be a D1 stamped on the top edge of one of the flanges) If so make sure that the idler arm doesn't foul when going from lock to lock.
They don't call me the man with the rubber arm for nothing you know.............

Re: Kitchs 1200 Coupe
I'm pretty Sure D2's are what I'm running. And they clear the steering. I spent hours trying to mod a set of non clearing ones untill i gave up.

Re: Kitchs 1200 Coupe
some A series header fouls the steering. D2's have nicer shape etc.
