Hi guys, just been having a look into the Reece Fish carb, seems a rather good carb :thumbsup: I know that Vizard rated it highly, just wondering who has actually fitted one to their mini?

I think he wasn't able to fit it due to the laws in his country, I know he has one, just wondering if anyone has one and has actually fitted it lol :-

He's not running it now, but I'm certain he DID fit it and have it running at least in his garage.

I did, yes :thumbsup:

But tuning it is realy difficult, might be easyer in summer. When I recorded the video it was deepest winter (you hear *sniff, sniff* :-). Bu I can say: I've driven it for at least two meters :wub:

If you need tuning instructions etc: http://fish.jan-wulf.de

Maybe I'm giving it another go this year. The problem I have ATM is that all LCBs I've tried so far fould the intake manifold (original Reece Fish alloy manifold). Most probably this is another reason I couldn't tune it properly (air leaks). I allready sorted a big chunk of aluminium I can make an adaptor plate with to fit to an MG manifold.

So unfortunately I'm not of big help :P

I got mine installed last night.. 998cc A serie engine. Just standard setup. Put it on the car and started straight away. No fine tuning and get the rest of the countryman done to drive :P
