    Is that the 2nd or 3rd round of the Sth Island cup at Levels? I could possibly be there then too.

    Yeah but the stock ones are too big.

    I can't remember how big stock were, but we went over this with Ivan, do a search. area = pi x D squared divided by 4

    so for a 24mm carb 3.14 x (24 x 24)/4 = 452mm2

    so if your carbs are bigger than 226mm2 each they are too big

    ah heck, here it is on a plate.
    16.97mm

    think std was 18. Tony Mack made some thin little sleeves for his 26mm carb to take it to 24mm, you could do the same if you get serious about making more power legally.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.
