Thanks for the info Wentzel. Sounds like a nice setup. Busy building an 1835 with a Rajay T-30 turbo with 2 36DRLA Carbs and MSD setup. What cam are you running on it?

Done by proxy by VdubTech crew , new fuel lines and pump, new coil , points plugs, condenser. Fuel tank cleaned new fuel filter. Carb body changed and new internals, fitted Gt 2 tip 4 into 1 exhaust. Tightened inlet set up.

I fixed window pillar,reconditioned and installed dash trim strip on cubby ,but most important i got to drive my Ghia hassle free , no idling no dying out or breaking down! YIPee thanks @bugger and VdubTech
