Re: Thoughts on Diff Lock ?

ive got one in my samurai! the diff makes all sorts of horrible sounds if someone who doesn't know the car drives it but once you get use to coasting corners its not to bad. big asset off road! although its annoying i would put one in my next vehicle. cheers Mike.

Re: g16a 8v carb question

Su carb is the odschool carbs. can use the 1 3/4 hiff44 of the old mini/mg engines which are ment to produce better power than standard carbs. have herd that the webbers have to be tuned perfectly or they will cut out in steep terrain. Plus you can run blow through boost on them :)
