Yep got me some 40mm from an r1 There's a firm called Bogg Brothers doing well with these.Paid £60 for mine...They are nearly always low millage ...dear bit is going to be the inlet manifold..Bogg Bros above charge £150 ish..You will need a stand alone ignition Im planning on making the megajolt light jr...

mmm Just wondering as im after twin 40's thought about these.. Im trying to keep as locost as pos due to being skint..

Im going to run a 2ltr zetec with the esc thing to start for the ign.. So i want easy fueling.

They are ment to be very easy to setup if you Know what your doing and stay tuned ...Ive havent seen webers or the likes for cheap money for a long time and they are ment to be a bitch to set up correctly ,And if they have been drilled wrong Im told this is hard to reverse????
To give you an idea ,try geting weber/delorto's with less than 12000 from new and guaranteed from a dealer for £60.....
