Rather than buying new horns I thought I'd strip down and clean up the originals.

I had the cast rears water blasted and rust treated because it was going to be to tricky to remove the internals for dipping. The came up nice though, it was probably the best choice in the end. The gaskets were totally stuffed so I bought some gasket paper and remade them also.

I reassembled then tuned them, they are loud! My hearing was a bit NQR after that haha.

Also got the bonnet stand prop rod back.

I spotted some beautiful velocity stacks on Sudou-san’s Hakosuka from Garage Saurus Suro-R at the Nostalgic 2 Day event recently. As soon as I saw them I had to have a set :D

I had these made up to suit Solex/Mikuni 44's. They are 80mm flared velocity stacks in titanium with heat treated tips. I removed the old studs from the carbs and fixed them with matching titanium hex head bolts. I also had the fuel feeds replated and the brass studs on the manifold hyroblasted as they were not looking the part. Now I'm only waiting on the linkages to come back and they are complete.

So things have been kind of quiet with the car. I popped over to Troy's yesterday and did a bit of work on his Savanna GT. He picked up a NOS bulkhead so the old one and a few other parts had to come off.

While I was over he sprayed my cluster for me which I'd rubbed back ages ago. I attached the alloy cover which I'd stripped back months ago to finish the GTR style cluster. It's not 100% perfect, but it will do until I can find a NOS grill.

I also finished off my carbs with a few more small bits. I picked up some wing nuts for the jet covers, titanium screws and a new stainless rod for the linkage and I had the rest of the linkage components hydroblasted. The rod is a little long at the moment but I'll sort that out when they are finally mounted.
