ermm, thats a question, never really kept track, I've just got on with it, dont want to think about how much things have cost me...

carbs - £60

inlet - £100

tuning session at bogg brothers (i had 2 due to my own fault, only really need one) - £80

silicone hoses to hold carbs - ide maybe say £10 (i bought lots at once)

and i already had all the ignition setup and dizzy etc

air filter (not desperatly needed, but required none the less) - £60

so ide say £310 roughly it cost me but it can vary alot depending on a few things obviously

Awesome car mate.

And i'm a 8v man :-D

loveing it! :D

i dont think people like it when a little old polo saloon anialates them from the lights! haha

i just wish i had bags of money to throw at it to get it running absolutly spot on as it never runs perfect and theres always something going wrong but money says i always have to cheaply repair it, instead of buying something new and better :(

would love to own a loon how much bhp is it pushin?

would love to own a loon how much bhp is it pushin?

no official numbers yet, but it made 140 at the wheels at bogg brothers, which would equal to about 167 at the crank but the accuracy of there rollers is questionable...

all i know is it goes like stink!

Is there a tube off one of the inlet tubes on the manifold for the brake servo?

Mate that is sick :-D good work! Would love to do something like this, don't have the money and time though :( heh
