kerrynzl 3 Report post Posted April 23, 2007 I was thinking about bolting a Holley carb and Mallory twin-point distributor onto my "3 Series 170 Cubic inch" E36 coupe, But the Damm thing aint got anywhere for the Dizzy to go! A 9 inch with 4 link rear, that requires those coil spring thingys [whats wrong with leaf spring and tramp bars] Sh*t it sounds like I spend waay tooo long on the Ford Mountain at Puke' yesterday, arguing with some Holden F**kwit about how racing has never been the same since 'Brocky' stopped racing Fords [it was an interesting conversation Hahaha!] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
