Greetings all;
Met an interesting fellow called Kerry Mitchell the other day after inquiring about an efi set-up for a windsor small block. The add appears in the latest edition of Motorsport News and the efi has come off the top of a GT 40 (Roaring Forties).From what I can gather this bloke is quite gifted. He has designed and manufactured these things himself and I dont need to tell anyone that the sight of 8 trumpets rising from the manifold is dead -set horn!!. I think he has about 6 sets left.
The reason he's selling this is that he's dropping a Lexus V8 into the GT 40 coupled with a Subaru box, and naturally this will have his efi set-up with some extractors. He showed me a magazinne that featured his work and this combination produced approx 400 bhp. All up the GT 40 will have shed approx 60 kgs and gained some more giddy up ,I think he said its about 960kgs wet with the Toyota. He's obviously a fan of the lexus motor as I counted 5 of them in his shop.....all sold too.
In his spare time he is building a Replica of a very late model Le-mans BMW from a model that could be bought from a newsagent!!.He allready has the V12. Its one of those open top things that look like those Mercs that Mark Webber drove a while back,its very very serious.

After all that, is there anyone else out there that loves these induction set-ups and knows who else makes them and which computers run them. I do know DC&O in NSW do a system for fords.
Anyone running these sytems, could you offer some advice on them?

Regards Chris Lidgerwood
