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? |

$50??? bargain, back in the day they had triple carbs on old eh's and stuff, buy them and flog it off for a couple hundred, that manifold will fit all older holden sixes such as 186, 202s etc |

shannons and just cars ect will cover ur car with any mod as long as its legal, on my tx 75 model as long as i have the vent valve to the sump connected to the inlet i think it is i can put on whatever the hell i feel like.
later gems have to comply with more adr rules though, go the TX |

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. |
