        Looking good, those carbys are actually Dellortos by the way, not Webers. Probably 40mm DHLAs off an Alfa.

        I've got the same carbs on one of my golfs.

        When you need parts for them this mob are excellent Dellorto and weber carburettors online

          yes i noticed that earlier on...how did they go on your golf? i'm very keen to get them running....they were off a old passat which used to hammer and that was a heavier car.

          thanks for the sight, will keep them in mind when i need stuff

              i can't wait to get on the track, been to a few events this year helping out my cousin but not actually racing in my own car...

                          • Gotta hate waiting ages for places to fix your ****!
                            Chrome places are no better, because there's so few of them I guess. Always flat out.
