I now have a set of SU's with manifold, linkages, air-box and choke cable and also a set of extractors with full exhaust. Including new hotdog in the middle and new muffler, not 'Big Bore' but I don't want that shit anyway...
It all came off the white 180b sedan that got rolled on the highway, here in nelson, about a year ago.
But, I'm sure it wont take much to modify it to fit lol.

Got the lot for $200. Sounded good to me...

Nice one Bert!
are the carbs round tops, or square tops?
What colour is the airbox? If the paint is a little grotty on it, please please please paint it a factory colour.

Here's some Pic's just for you Bartman!

The carbs are flat tops, I gather their probably standard 1 1/2 SUs?
The manifold has 'Japan 220' cast into it. the carbs have 'iso' or 'i50' or something on the side.

The air box is a lil beat up, and has been painted metallic blue (With a can by the looks) :crazy:
But inside it's the standard orange. :thumbsup:
I just don't know if I should paint it that orange or the sky blue that my factory one is?
Either way, It's definitely going a factory color dw.

The extractors are 4-1, look to be 1 1/2. they are welded straight to the rest of the exhaust lol
Looks like it was one piece all the way through! But I'll most likely as a 2 bolt at the back of the extractors...

Ok Guys I need some advice...

I just tried to get the old plugs out out the head, using 'penitr8' and a bar due to how tight they are in there, when this happened... :thumbsdown:

I have the feeling i may have bent it slightly, but even still it never budged, even after drowning it in Penitr8!

Sucks, thankfully this has happened on the bench, nothing fallen inside a cylinder and no having to pull it down to get it fixed. Still sucks! You may be using the wrong Product, can I recommend BOC's C2H2+O2

A friend of mine took the head to a talented mechanic at our friendly wreckers and he has sorted the little plug issue out.
I'll probably go pick it up on monday. :highfive:
I'm currently just cleaning up the carbs.

Still trying to decide what color to go with for the airbox... Any ideas? :poke:
