Repeat? You haven't asked here before! Maybe a PM Fred!

[FredTransit]

In another post (or two). Infact I have my own wanted post for a carb/manifold.

[madmark]

fred if a scraper comes with a v4 the carb is yours! v4,s are getting a pain to get now!

[wardy-uk]

Hi, I just thought id let you all see a picture of my van as it is now

[wardy-uk]

Cheers William

[madmark]

the problem is unless you know the miles of the engine you will be takeing a gamble,the v4 wasnt that good a such ,its fords back axles that killed them the most as they revved them so high! in the cars they lasted alot better!

[wardy-uk]

Is there any kind of modification that can be done to help the engine out?

[wardy-uk]

Im definitly getting my V4 tomorrow! carn't wait. Will be useing mr ecovery to fetch it
