Well, they do fit

Post by agnoraan »

I didn't think that the Dellorots I'd bought would fit under the bonnet, but after mocking them up on another engine and taking a few measurements, it looks as though it'll be fine. That's one more headache out of the way :lol:

I think these will look really good on the car, along with the dumbed down Cobra valve covers and black painted engine. Big thanks to Phil and Nik for the heads up that these were for sale :D

Cheers...NIge

I suspect they're going to be far more trouble than they're worth, but I look forward to being proved wrong.

I've spoken to a guy that specialises in Dellortos and he'll tune them and set the car up on his dyno for me. He said once they're set up they should be trouble free and give good fuel economy whilst also giving approx 20-25 hp more than the car already has. I had twin Dells on my VW bus and they worked really well. If they don't work or are a pain in the butt, they'll be coming off :wink:
