My mate can get me excellent cond. tripple webbers for $50 on a UC Torana manifold though. Is it worth gettin them or is 3 overkill on a g161 block?

well at moment im with suncorp , my prem is 300 and excess is 1800 cause i have modified car, with shannons my prem would be 800 and excess is 750 , or 1000 prem for forced induction either of which is cheaper than suncorp or racq for me. prem is more but add em together and works out less if u have an accident with shannons or just cars

u dont need to hand em in anything, but if u go to claim and cant produce the paper work to prove it is all legal than u can forget about getting anything.
