My how time flies! 

Well it's been a few months and MIB is still going strong.  I've changed the wheels for BBS and the head is now fitted with a Schrick cam but apart from that it's all pretty much as it was a few months ago.

I went to North Wales last weekend and got to give it a bit of a workout on some of what must be the UK's best driving roads. It was like being on the Nurburgring at some points. Stunning roads and scenery! I can't wait ti go back again! Hopefully I will be in the TWR next time! Wink

Just been lucky enough to find myself an old workshop in Sutton.  It's a bit like a garage of yesteryear and even has a massive Dunlop trolley jack included. It's from a time when tools were tools! Anyway, I can crack on with getting ready for Crystal Palace now. I'm guessing I'll be looking for a van next. It's a slippery slope this motorsports malarky.

Good day Mark
 
I have had my E21, 320, for 21 years
I fitted a Webber conversion back in 1990 but have just managed to find a decent original Solex Carb.
I have serviced it and the car runs fine - when warm
I have followed the instructions in my Hayes manual still not quite there when cold
Do you have any data or can you point me in the right direction
 
many thanks
