Re: Family Affair Ek Ute

Sub frames are the easiest repair going. I think I have the centre section Rares piece that you can have for the postage cost if you need it.

Re: Project 2.

Well for this week anyway Neil🙂. You know how it is, there is always something to do! I'm trialling electric choke at the moment. I like the idea of having it automated, but the control freak in me says "why are you not doing this choking yourself?" We'll see.

Re: Project 2.

Cheers Clay. It's nice to annoy the street in style🙂.
It's not Harv's waggon, but it certainly blats very nicely now!

Holley is now sorted. Swapped 7.5 power valve to 6.5, swapped 0.60 main jets to 0.63. Going like the clappers- finally.

Re: Project 2.

Yes it's only a matter of jets and power valves and a few other minor fiddles. I like the feel of it already though.

Re: Project 2.

I'm not sure Clay. I ended up with 4 of them. The one I put some effort into and used had a manual choke. Definitely your manifold though. Having troubles now with the 350 being too lean on the road. Consulting Harv.

Re: Project 2.

Tripples are sold and heading to an LC XU1 in Sydney I believe. Still have the LJ XU1 manifold and CD175s but they need a lot of work. The WW has proven to be a great carburetor and with very little tinkering has worked very well. Now it's Holley's turn. First try out of the box and motor was awash ...

Re: Tow bar for EK sedan please

Re: Clay’s Wedgewood Blue FB Ute

Yes, I have also found that you have to put the headers on first and then attach the pipes to ensure the headers to sit properly against the head.
