Sorry Boet

Cant see the carb pictures, but if you say it mounts witha paper gasket then, it should be 1300. Still nice power in a fibre glass tub. Any idea what it weights?

Last i check it was 778 kg this is with the spare wheel but the roof rack wasn't on yet.

Here are some more pics of the motor painted and fully put back together and inside engine bay aswell.







What i also did yesterday was mount the licenseplate holders, back bumper and tow hinge adjuster:









PS the plats on the jeep is just for show the front is my girlfriends tazz old numberplate and the back is my bikes...

Here is a list of what still needs to be done. This list is not finished by a long shot ( i think) this is just what came to mind at this moment.


What still needs to be done on the jeep:
Roll cage extended
Paint body underneath
Paint chassis( some parts started pealing)
Roll cage sandblast and power coat
Fitting a shatterproof windscreen
Mount wiper motors
Mount wiper arms and blades
Fix electrical wiring to the chassis body
Mount air filter houlder
Mounting of speedo cable
Mounting of seatbelts to roll cage and chassis
Fit side impact bars( these double up as steps as well)
