Bought some scrap metal at the AHD swap.

I have no idea what cast iron sells for as scrap per kilo but this definitely set me back more than the per kilo price :shock: :shock: :shock:

It came with a cool looking inlet manifold, carbs and Kleinig linkage kit (some of it anyway).

Reckon it might spruce up the FB engine bay !

Those Kleinig headers you scored at the swap were a good find :thumbsup:

Any chance of an engine bay pic of the neighbour's FJ ???????

Cheers Craig

Yeah despite having to pay a bit above the odds I was very happy to get hold of them. I really thought I was seeing things when I saw them on his table ! He told me they were new but they have had some light work as evidenced by a light carbon build up.

Dave, Mick is right, Ask if you can get some picks of his as a set up, and hope that back of yours is getting better.
