There is nothing shonky about the Anglia van on the single down draught carb mate, nothing shonky about it at all.

It drives lovely, its quick and will live with me until mine comes up on Cam and then I get the legs on him.

But that was 138bhp on a scrap yard RS1800 motor.

He's just rebuilt it all on a 2.0 bottom end with new head etc and I reckon that will be closer 150 with the raised compression etc.


Right, for me to go from my 45's and OMEX 100 to an injection set up the costs were :-

OMEX600 - £650 (Ignition only module was half that)

Injectors £ 50-60 a piece

Fuel Rail £80

Pressure Regulator £80

High Pressure Pump & Filter £150

Lift Pump & Swirl Pot £100

Throttle bodies themselves £450


Easily over £1000, closer £1700


As I said you can run it on a £25 box from a breakers and that comes with the coil pack,

Or you can use a £100 Megajolt

Or you can use a £350 ignition only module

I supplied the owner of the van with a NEW 32/36 Carb and it was £179+VAT


You pays your money and takes your chance as the old saying goes, but it can be done for very little money and good results can be had
