Beautiful car at a very realistic price. Good luck with the sale Paul. I remember watching your build with interest a few years ago.

Absolutely fantastic car.

I think you should take about 8 months to think about this sale...then sell it to me because thats when I will have my funds sorted!!!

The pipes look very interesting. Also what state is the car rego in?

Hi Paul
Yep yours was one of the cars that turned me to a cobra and Harrison as a make. Hope you get what you want as its a credit to you.
Interesting remark you make about the injectors. Do you find it stalls a bit from idle. I love the injectors and seriously think about putting some on. Would you do it again or go for a supercharger maybe?

Hi
Hsvredsled . It has SA rego. Because mine was the first Harrison in SA the enginners report was massive so i cant see why rego in any other state would be a problem.I have changed the rear of the exhaust since giving the motor more horspower so its a bit different now.
I would love to sell it to you . leave me a decent deposit and i will hold it .

Bruce. If you think of a single 80mm throttle body on idle and you open the throttle 1mm you increase the air flow by a small amount, But when you have 8 x 50mm throttle body's and you open the throttle by 1mm the amount of airflow is a hell of a lot more hence it throws your head back more LOL.
I can drive it no probs every now and then it gets abit bunny hoppy. But the sound and horsepower you get is way worth it. You just have to be carfull how far you push the trottle moving of from the lights, once your moving its no different than a single setup.

Regards
Paul

You might want to look at making an eccentric bellcrank for the cable pull where it attaches to the throttle bodies. This will give you a smaller rate of movement at the lower start of the accelerator movement and a greater movement as you put your foot down. Might make it a bit more drivable off the mark.

Cheers
