Need the carb and boost setting up. Need a good place to get it sorted. Closer to liverpool the better

There really is no one around here that'll be able to set a GTT carb up (that I know of) By all means I can re-jet the carb for you and raise the boost but I wouldn't accurately be able to check the fuelling as I don't have a portable wideband kit.

You could try Pete Morgan Racing in Wrexham - he's worked on GTT's before.

I would recommend Ian Nixon in Stoke. I can pass on your details if you want him to have a look at your car

it got a group a carb now like. so only need the setting up. also where is the right place to set the boost guage to? the manifold and do you get different readings at different places?

Setting up will generally mean re-jetting/setting the boost mate ;) I'd suggest getting rid of the GP A carb and going back to a standard venturi as well due to them being very difficult to fuel throughout the rev range.

Plumb the boost gauge into the AEI line ;)

P.s didn't realise Ian Nixon was still fiddling with GTT's?
