Few niggling problems, may have to box carb under pressure, need higher psi fuel pump. But here is a progress pic of my supercharged 4y-c hilux.
may need to change carb too, have 2 strombergs thanks to bush65 i may try. just worried about pullution gear re: rego/engineer as my motor is extremely pollution controlled

Nope not Grants, its on a 2lt injected petrol Hilux. Its the green one that I was teamed up with for Woodpecker, he was also my spotter at TTC.
