Mac - moderately chuffed.
I really want to see your garden, with all those replanted carbs
I can believe that you are really chuffed!
The result is excellent!
Life is a journey, so sit back and enjoy the ride!

Setting the float height,

Probably not - but then if you actually had a 300 you could test it for me.V6 Man wrote:Yadda, yadda, yadda, bling, bling, shiny, shiny.....

Toyota is currently actually on the floor in giggles having read that Mac.
I'm really looking forward to this being bolted up to a manifold and running, it really does show what can be done with sheer bloody mindedness (and some skill)

I would go out an buy one specifically for such a purpose but, to be honest, I probably live too far from you for practical purposes.mac wrote: if you actually had a 300 you could test it for me.
I'd suggest you try and find someone more local to you. You could do with finding some gullible old sod in the Needham Market area with a 1.4 or 1.7 (or preferably both), ideally in a state of being rebuilt, that you could try them on......
