I didn't fit them mate....but the guy that did them took me through everything before I drove it away....there really isn't much too it. I was actually quite suprised how easy it all goes together....

the only major thing was he had to get a new inlet manifold made up to spec. to mate with the carbs.

popular because they produce more power than carbs, once set up stay set up and are better than carbs
