A mate sent me a photo of this taken at Wakefield park, not sure what car it is but looks like an A-series (B?) with a cross flow head but i cant quite get my head around it :shock:

Would it be a combo of a std head and a cross flow? with a system that shuts the butterflies on either one of the carbie setups so they can run webbers on the track and twin SU's on the street to save fuel :? but wouldn't that screw up the advance and timing?
I got no freaking idea :roll: .

Would twin webbers be that much better than Twin 1" 3/4 SU's??

It is one of those rare ten port heads. I will see if I can find the brochure...

see, now I know you're full of it - there are only 9



it's a B series, in something like a Morris Major, and the SU's are fake

that's what I reckon

10 ports, you have to count the one the thermostat sits in. :wink:

I think the owner realised that there was room for them to bolt up and just did it for a laugh. Looks good!

Racing class rules probably say you have to have original carbs, so why not have them but just not use them?

:lol:

Guy did a similar thing on a morris 1300. 7 port head and webers with a hiff44 bolted on to confuse people and hide the turbo.

But Mokesta, you may be onto something there.

It's a Speedwell 'His 'n' Hers' set-up. Common enough in the 60's when females paid less road tax than men, so blokes would get their wives to drive them to the track. You don't see them much these days as they only had one exhaust port.

This is a little too interesting to let you get away with two lines Angus...

Any more information please? I like the sound of it...
