    Best Carb /pump for a 1641 rebuild

    Thanks for the reply The garage where I took it recommend the progressive but given the price similarity to the twin car option it's a made me reconsider. Twins seem the carb of choice in most of the build threads. Got to decide to make sure I buy the right exhaust set up :D

    1968 Savannah Beige Microbus from California

    Wow that's come together quick, nice work.Them units in the back look really smart, great job done.

    fitting vertical powder extinguisher in engine bay

    Same as all those above, bracket is screwed through the wheel arch, not the firewall. When buying the firetec one you had to select horizontal or vertical mount, as the vertical one comes out the top at a right angle
