soooo... motor seems to be silvertop with blacktop throttles, loom, computer, and rocker cover, had a look down the throttles and you can see the step where the inlet port is smaller than the throttle manifold, grrrrr :evil:
When in doubt, down and out.

i've thought about it, the guy i bought it off isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer though so i'd doubt he would have known, if it runs nice i'll just live with it
