You can never have too many tools!! I had to alter my planned technique due to the complexity & depth of the injector holes...

Armed with digital verniers I’ve started measuring...

More EFI conversions to get ideas to wet your appetite...

All booked!! Boys weekend here we come! Bucket list... ✔️ https://www.thebend.com.au/events/4-hours-bend-asian-le-mans-series

Part of Carobu’s secrets revealed! Clearly not an easy task:
