Good pic. I looked at the houses and thought they looked like the Fairfield park style, then I saw your name. I'm down the road in LGC.

Very nice Perry.

Who makes this setup?

hi peter,

they are

although I was originally thinking of going Omex bodies but in the end went for John's preferred set up. I am having a 4.8 engine screwed together by Devon racing so should, fingers crossed, keep us at the front for Spa again next year.

Very nice indeed. Ian is running these on his Griff, the sound is immense.

I look forward to seeing what the power increase will be with these!

Surprisingly very little mate, I hope it will increase BHP by maybe 15 or 20 if I'm really lucky. It is the torque that I'm more interested in. I will post graphs before and after if you interested.

That sounds great and encouraging as they will be replacing quad Dellorto 48's . that's like a Vulcan taking off on full chat.

The Vulcan flew over our front garden at 150 feet during our grandchildrens' birthday party in September. The various dads and I were somewhat awestruck. The mums and kids just talked louder. I can confirm the noise......

If the Dellortos you have at the moment are down draft then you already have the holy grail of sound. I don't think you can beat down draft carbs.

According to John Eales the longer intake on the crossover makes a lot more torque than the equivalent down draft.

Hmmm, I'm sure my triple plenum setup develops more torque than Ian's TBs although his does develop more top end power, just

You have 300cc more than Ian. I reckon you would see gains if you swapped your plenum for throttle bodies. Not that you need any more power, it feels proper quick with that new cam in.

Only if he hangs on tight to the steering wheel..........
