mk1 golf build ( pics up)

Same carbs as mine though I think mine have a slightly wider spacing in the centre between the two banks. Mine were off a CBR1000 or something?!?!

i seem to be finding real bargains at the mo which is real handy for the course,
i got a new n/s/f wing for ?12.50 primed already to go,and i took the 8x15 ats cups off the cabby to see how much the rear arches need to be pulled/extended but they don't need anything which is a right result.

pics updated soon as :wink:
