Default She goes well now

Its amazing what a constant fuel flow can do to performance.

I finished fittiing my Carter Lift Pump and Swirl Pot tonight and took her for a test spin.

Far out it goes like a dream now. Can go around corners without coughing and spluttering.

Acceleration is good too. It must have been running a bit lean on that too.

The Carter Lift pump is not too loud. Once the engine is running you cant hear it unless you specifically listen for it.

The Surge Tank is only 0.6L and seems to do the job fine, tucks neatly under the boot in the middle near the diff.

Carter LP pump location was a bit tricky as I wanted to put it as low as possible to the pickup. Its about 100mm higher than the pickup and sucks fine.
