decided on kawasaki zx9 carbs, bring on the sound of induction, the guy that run these carbs used to rev his kr to 8.5k revs (apparently)

Is it the knife edged crank that enables that rev range Trev? Was he running a remapped ECU? You just need some decent cams and you'll be away now

as far as im aware the guy that run the carbs had a standard bottom end with a ported head.

the engine im getting has been run on injection (not for long

)

If that is a standard bottom end, that's very promising

Any danger of you rocking up to the event, on the 10th, in this?

Are there any Golf's you don't own Trev?
Where's the number for the Monopolies Commission?
