Is it just me, or are those seats sort of leaning towards the centre of the car? Like leaning towards each other? Anything is better than what was in there though.

The jenvey itb kit i aquired, you can buy the manifold seperately which has the same weber bolt pattern.

Nope scratch that, with a bit of searching apparently the manifold angle makes them unsuitable for carbs. bugger..

not sure, I'm sure if you have a welder and spend a couple of days making up some runners for the carbs, can even use mild steel and powder coat it

Yer but the parts came up for sale at the right price so really couldn't say no now could i ;-)

The sp20 side skirts are about 200mm to long so they will need to be shortened but I'll wait till I get my SS front bar to make sure that they suit that too...
