But why face the jackets backwards if the radiator is at the front? :-\

They are intake ports, he says that they go right through onto the intake, I may just buy it to make a Nitros oxide injected screemer!...not

I thought a kart too Tony, and they wanted equal vacume pressure but not with the size of those in/outlets.  E74 could be on the money with NOS but once again they would be to large. And why would you inject NOS both sides like that when a single hole on top of the reed block housing would do the job? Turboing has me stumped. Why?

No, I see now, its an ash tray, or is it a bong??  ;D

Where is Lozza when ya need him??

A Crime Scene is what that is. We know where they finish but where do those pipes connect to. Time to start asking questions, big prize for the question that gets the best response for the seller.Look I'll kick it off ;D

I can only think of some sort of boost bottle or that they connect to each other, the only other place that I think would be any good would be in a fish tank, it would make a nice home for the fish  ;D

Actually, its one of Lozza's good mates that we need to answer the really tough questions like this one.

I'm sure he'll be along soon. :)
