Default my mates rs1600i

here are some pics of under the bonnet of my mates rs1600i
he bought it with the 2.0 zetec allready fitted but running full injection
so he bought a bike carb conversion from bogg brothers and fitted it and i helped him wire it up. it runs a edis 4 setup from a 1.3 escort to run the coilpack.

they are r1 carbs and matching r1 pump. it all comes in the bogg brothers package. as they jet them to run correctly. it all fitted straight up and run perfectly.
the bonus wiring will run it all with no mods.
here are some more pics of the car

think it was about Ł600 for the full kit(carbs,inlet manifold,fuel pump,throttle cable,choke cable) and it will work on your wiring dave

How much more power is this going to give over injection ??
Sounds like a very good and cheap conversion to me .
