A little O/T but seeing as the EK took up all my time over the last few years I haven't done much on the roadster other than give it a whole lot of neglect and fix breakages :oops:. So this week it got a little birthday present, I finally fitted the twin carbs!!! Thought I'd share some pics, still needs some fine tuning but it goes alot better and now looks like a hot rod :lol: :lol: :lol:

Looks like something that Fonzie,Ritchie,Pottsy and Ralf would drive to Al's Diner in Happy Days!!

They keep coming loose :shock: :wink:
There is a crackdown on fenderless rods at the moment here in Vic, so I really should refit them.

As Trev knows, I've had this manifold ever since owning the roadster. It also came with the carbs, but they were pretty well stuffed. Nothing a rebuild hasn't fixed, just need to repaint the block and its good as new...

Yep and they'll look even cooler once the insides are pinstriped!! Currently they are just black.
