Fordi Posted October 14, 2021 Author Share Posted October 14, 2021 Watched this which was brilliant! "Weber DCOE, Part 2B Selecting jets and venturi's - YouTube" There are other parts, good watch. I'm based in Glossop. Not picked up the car yet as I'm nearly finished with my carport. Just getting all my ducks in a row 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i take the seats out im fine. (still very tight tho) I'm blessed with the same lanky frame, I switched to the same kind of seats to be able to fit (buckets were a no-no) Wasn't enough on its own, but a smaller steering wheel (11") helped a lot, and I've also worked on the pedal positions to gain circa 35mm lengthwise.

Fordi Posted October 14, 2021 Author Share Posted October 14, 2021 U might be right about the steering wheel. Gonna put a 40mm space on it which might help. Does anyone know if it can be raised about 25mm. I believe the column is from a mk2 escort which was the donor car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
