You'll want to go closer to neutral offset anyway, a 13x7 +25 or whatever the stock offset is would hit the strut

i was keen on superlites but now im thinking sumthing a little more jap style wiv deep dish? or maby just go wiv the bathurst style mags polishet and painted white (like daves)
anyway tomorow i will start making phone calls to diffrent workshops to ask about my motor and get sum quotes on full reco on my head and bottem end ballencing.. witch leads to my next QUESTION wat exactly is invloved in ballencing a motor? i take it thay just grind a bit here and there of the crank and rods? shood i fit my new pistons,rings and berrings first?
and i no i mussent forget to do the welsh plugs too!

anyone used isky 455/456 dubble valve springs and retainers? thinking these will go nice with my #2 cam?

well thay dont make them anymore best price sofar was $220 for a full reco on the head but still havnt rang the places that mike sugested...

after sum sanding the cam berring bits lookt ok so i thort wile im still chasing valves and springs i wood get away with throwing it back to gether wiv my #2 cam and take it for a spin....well i got it running ok seem to be fine! so i went and put rego on her then cum home started it up again and it was running like a dog .......well after a inspection the oil is like milk so the head gasket must hav let go... and to piss me off even more i had it bookt it for a full tune and ballence of the carby today...

got my head back today after beeing workt on for the last few days at richards engine service.. it had a slight warp in it and had to be shaved down a bit to fix but all good now.. im still chasing a good torque wrench to fit it with (cant really aford one this week ) but it shood all be running again very soon.. i hav had my extractors ceramic coated and i wrapt them with heat tape and clear coated them when finished now thay look great here is a pic of the head..

and the extractors

its all back to gether! now i just need to get it down to this alfa mechanic i no to get the carbs ballanced and tuned proply..

Coming along very nicely, can't wait to hear it finished

love it. nothing better than a clean bay like that

This is looking REALLY good
When you get the DCOEs set up, I'd LOVE to know what the jetting/air correction and so on is
(I have a pair waiting to go on my GA/4G32 and need a good starting point)

Looking good, but I have to ask a question, why is your engine bay painted blue? Are you going to respray the whole car blue? (just for the record, I went back to the first page to look for an answer but couldn't find one. It's probably there, but I missed it).

BTW, any update on rims?

Dave...

Nice bay mate

This is a pretty good place to start .... http://www.classicrallyclub.com.au/docs ... ndrews.pdf

Same general rules would apply to Dellorto & Mikuni-Solex sidedraughts as well, I would imagine (I'll know for sure when the jets I have ordered for my M-S 40s arrive in the mail )

Looks good!

Now she's lookin' old school tough!

Did you have any trouble getting a good tight fit with it ? Mine doesn't seem to clip in quite as tightly at the top as the stock dash does.

I've discovered that the tach in mine seems to read a bit low, also ..... seems to be a % thing, as the error gets greater as revs increase. Will have to get it checked/calibrated I think (looks like there is an adjustment screw on the back)

seems to fit good at the top but the bottem is slightly off.. think my tacho is reading pretty good but wont be suprised if i find its a bit out the more the revs go up... bit like the speedo too.

Love the new parts, looks very cool

btw .... I've got a spare accelerator pedal if you need one !

thanks jason..
and dave im thinking of making one that dosent atatch to the floor like in the lancers..

I fitted a scorpion accel pedal in my GD- was a straight nut and bolt swap. Only needed to bend the upper half of the pedal arm a little to take some slack off the cable. Should be the same story for you.
