Love the seats, do the overseas thing, I'm in a wheel chair now and eating left handed since I had mine re-trimmed locally, although it was nice to keep the vents in the seat, and they do look good.

Injectors are going into weld in special pockets half way along the runners.
the inclined holes you are looking at are just bolt fixing points for ancillary 4AGE crap that I have ditched, I intend on mounting my fuel rail off those points.
note I have flipped the bodies "upside down" and all the throttle linkages etc are going to be discretely fitted underneath.
The advantage of this also, is the TPS is mounted at the front not at back squished up against the fire wall

yeah, will hit Lewis up again, I was going to get him to my 12 hundy seats originally.
and if I get him to do it, he can do rear seats in matching vinyl.


LOL Vaughan, took me a few seconds to understand your convaluted way of telling me your retrim cost an arm and a leg - nice...

Looking awesome dude. Those Z seats suit real nice! Very jelly :) That rear end we talked about still up for grabs? Also, what are you doing with your old Dellortos and did you get rid of your old 1200 seats?

Braasy, told simon you could be keen on the rear end, how do you want to proceed?

What seats you after, I have a blue pair of sedan seats, but Grant has first dibbs on my coupe seats, and Luke has second dibbs.....

Re the rear end, PM the price and will decide on next steps. Regarding seats, after anything. If 1200 seats are good, will look to have them recovered and stored for when I put my 1200 back together. If no-one gets the coupe seats, always keen on spares/options :D

coupe boys would kill me if the coupe seats went to a sedan owner!


As I said it to you, Si wants $500 for the H165 rear end as thats what he paid for it.
new wheel bearings, wheel cylinders, shoes, and machined drums, and been modified for sedan fitment, and out of running car, so its a good buy at that.


Blue seats, one is near mint, others have a couple of rips in bum of seat.

Yours if you want them - carton of heiny's should cover it

Done and done, although I won't be your way for a wee while (on the plane Monday the 23rd!). Hopefully we can work something out :)

Looks like he just put it upside down for the test fit accidentally maybe?

EDIT: NVM, didnt realise there was a full page of updates I hadnt read since classicdats post.
