oh yeah? how much were you after for the extractors? would need them posted to NSW 2570 as well.. would love to find somewhere local that would be able to do it [re dizzy]. i'll do some asking and hunting around. will run without it for now. just get the a/f tested and tune the carb as best as possible, get the timing OK and start driving!

i found my way to that thread earlier. was checkig out your ke70 and ended up there. i have to say i did get a little cross eyed trying to take it all in, well done though i learnt alot! This car will pretty much be driven with wide open trottle all the time (this is a track hack project). so i'm actually leaning towards deleting the vac advance stuff and having the dizzy re curved. Who would do that kind of work? engine builders? carby specialist? here's the culprit btw. p.s. if anyone knows where i can get a set of extractors for a 3t i'm all ears!

great info matey. thanks :) so if i were to run no vac advance i should set the timing at idle quite high so that at full revs the timing will we correct? also how do i plumb up the 2 vac ports on the dizzy. i'll ty find a pic.. ok this is the sort of setup i have on my golf only 1 port for vac. 3tc has 2 not the best pic sorry. is it some sort of dual stage vacuum or something? with 2 springs inside maybe?

Hi guys, this is my maiden post on rolla club, so i'll start with a short intro.. i'm an r31 enthusiast, also own a '78 mk1 golf and an s13 sivia, and now also a t18 :) from sydney. Question: I recently picked up a 3tc powered t18, and have installed a single side draft manifold and a dellorto dhla 45. There is quite a lot of vacuum garbage that is no longer needed however i would like to retain the vacuum advance. the dellorto does not have vacuum anywhere on it. i have hooked up the brake vacuum to the manifold. am i able to t piece the brake booster vac for the dizzy? or is that a bad idea? can i just tap into one of the manifold runners and run vac advance from that? also there are 2 fittings on the dizzy vacuum thingy... do they both need vacuum? if not which one does what? thanks, Mike
