yes it was a 1.8kr with twin 40's.....170 bhp / 140lb torque
i blow the bottom end (lack of oil! ) on a rolling road.
found out later i had a wiring problem, re wired the ecu and got more power! gutted we never found that when it ran the carbs
still, one of the best sounds in the world is a 16v on carbs at 7000rpm!
its one of the sexiest and cleanest looking set ups the 16v on carbs.... and the sound, drool worthy!

I Have put Bildon ITB's on my KR 16V but have left the motor @ 1.8L to remain eligable under cams tarmac classifications and am currently sourcing a Techtonics race header. My car is built at 11.5:1 comp and runs a haltech E6x computer and coil packs so i can use the 9" booster and 24mm master cylinder with 288mm vr6 brakes. only started it briefly due to no exhaust but looking forward to a bench dyno session to get a basic tune before pulling the ol stroked 1.8 (worked) 8V i have rallied with

So I have a KR digifant conversion 16V and the blue temp sensor is not removable due to the intake being in the way. There is an adaptor available from BBM to space it out, has anyone used another solution? I don't want to pony US$50 for the spacer if I don't have to.
