Thanks. Your estimate is correct for a RS400 complete kit - pedals, cable clutch kit, bell, fork kit with released bearing, billet flywheel, clutch kit, Shifter handle, ****, .... and complete trans kit with driveshaft, crossmember, speedo cable, pilot bearing, isolator mount, ebrake cable pulley hdwe, etc etc. Just add oil.

Hi.

Thanks again , you're really helpfull as always , i really like american people .

Do you know that a friend of mine from italy ( yes i'm italian living in ireland ) had travel the route 66 on 50 cc vespa with his wife ? Crazy but he did it .
In italy they're hero .

Ok into the topic again .
I think the price and shipping is very reasonable all i need to do is to pass the info over and see what he Think .

Thank also for the concern if he doesn't have money , but lucky enough he got them is just a bit hard for me to be a link because he not always easy to contact and doesn't have time to be online ...

Say so i'll give to him the estimate and contact of Mr.Keisler , and we'll see if he finally resolve the problem , i personally think this is the best way for him to go manual and not all the modification he have in mind .

Mainly he likes manual and not auto , he think can lower also the fuel consumption but , still ,that car have some problem to be drinking in that way or maybe ..just got the Irish Bug

Talk to you later guys ....have a nice time

I get ~25 out of my 302 with a TKO 600 and a carb, not even tuned right. Mileage has more to do with gearing and engine setup and how you drive than it does with efi or carb.
