Hi all,
Just a heads up on a very cheap chimaera on the bay

Not sure I'd even punt that much on it tbh!

I picked up some bumpers for my Spitty (yes I will get a TVR one day) from Sedgley this morning which is only a stones throw from Wolverhampton.
If I had seen the add' I would have had a peep.
What,s the feeling about a carb' instead of F.I. I like carbs am I mad?
Does the TVR engine come with valve covers like the ones in the images?
Cheers
Lance

Didn't realise was in Wolverhampton, not far from me

Surely putting a carb on is bonkers. What possible benefit is there?

Simplicity, some of the older guys are probably a bit more comfortable setting up carbs

Suit me then ('49 model) - but what about emissions when it needs a MOT?

Not that cheap really - I sold a Chim on ebay for £16 yesterday (e bay item 151272141647 ).
