CARB UPGRADES
More bangs for your buck
Difficulty:
Time to fit: 2 hours Nothing says classic performance more than a pair of performance carbs hanging off the end of an inlet manifold.Twin Webers, Dell’Ortos, a set of twins was de rigueur on a performance engine until throttle bodies starting to take over the mantle around a decade ago. But for classic looks with performance, nothing beats the sight and sound of a well set-up pair of twins with rampipes (see number 12) on show and bolted to a decent inlet. Carbs, linkage and inlet manifolds can be found in the second-hand marketplace for under £500, though reckon on extra for a service kit at the very least. How much: £450 (pair 40 DCOEs on Crossflow inlet, Speed Shack)
