The Frozen ******* Wasteland!
New to me. My dream cars are primarily Ford and Mopar ('67 'Stang and Firebird). The ultimate would be a marriage of Brit and Ford, namely a '67 Shelby 427 AC Cobra that makes me want to dry hump it's fenders it's so damn gorgeous.
Do I detect a set of dual down draft Webers?

Now you can see what delights England Ford was building in the early
70`s:yes
Like your choice of cars too but couldnt afford to run v8 muscle with our fuel prices.
The Webers are side draught so your only 90 degrees out mate:thumbup.
Thread has been well and truly hyjacked which wasnt my intention so best keep it two wheels eh.

Sweet Mexico - takes me back.
I used to road rally a Mk1 RS2000, 45mm DCOE side draughts and an Ex Tractor exhaust etc. Used to do about 9mpg, mostly sideways. Brilliant fun, sadly I sold my RS when I went abroad working, one of Fords better Euro cars ISTR.

Projects, recent and present.
Current job - to finish loft conversion abandoned in spring when the weather turned & it got too ferkin hot in the roof. Following on, sort my office at home, enlarge the bathroom & refit.
Previous years, built my own conservatory & linked the outhouses which are now the utility etc. New kitchen - back to bare walls, demolish chimney etc. re-plumb, re-wire, re plaster (well dry line).
Must get a bike to tinker with instead, it'll be cheaper :rolleyes
OOh, my Renegade airbox conversion arrived this morning. Should get that fitted, by April?? :dunno

:lol :cheers - I haven't even run it in yet. I will leave the cans/airbox off until the engine is fully broken in, then get the mapping swapped over to Map 2 & the TB's reset etc. Given what happened to Martin, sorry, Windy's bike i am going to extend the run in to about 1200-1500 miles before I really give it the berries. Should give the crank time to bed in fully. :thumbup

There are two main types available, Evoluzione & Renegade.
Evoluzione, "Evo" airbox, This opens the system up by provinding a seal around the stock airbox lower against the tank. The underside of the tank now becomes the top of the airbox plenum chamber (remove the padding) giving a bigger volume of air for the engine to pull on.
Advantage - maintains the Ram air effect at high speed.
Disadvantage - fiter is on intake to chamber - bad seal = dust in engine
Renegade products "Rene" Air Box.
this replaces the whole airbox with a rather nicely made carbon fibre tray and an oil/foam filter.
Advantage - filter sits over air intake trumpets & induction roar is wicked.
Disadvantage - No Ram air effect.
I had the Evo on the Tuoldo as Jorge has moved to Portugal & I couldn't get hold of a Rene at the time. I think the Rene type better - I would rather protect my engine from dust than have a theoretical power boost at high speed.
There is a lad on the RSVzone who makes a copy of the Rene system - I think Andirsv posted about him in weeksy's track day mods thread.
I got this off Ebay from a lad in Wakefield for about the same money.
