  • Here we're stripping down and starting to restore the twin Stromberg carbs for the GT6 Mk2 project. They're pretty horrible looking! But seem to be in fairly good condition underneath the dirt.

    shockingly clean in that first float chamber!

      Yeah they were disgusting on the outside, but pretty decent on the inside. Currently they're waiting behind the Herald's bodywork though!

    Sorry to hear about your Herald. Another great video

      Thanks Henry, insurance things are taking time but fingers crossed.

    Hiya, Good timing on this video. I either rebuild the 150CD on the Herald or I go full Mk3 Spit spec as you have done ( or go as I did on my spit and fit twin Webers ?) . Having driven the car a fair bit last week, it's, well a bit slow to me. Mind you I have just come from a 600kg 120bhp crossflowed car, lol... So perhaps I am asking a bit much... Will mail you this week as I have yet more questions. Oh and thanks for the paint mail, I don't think I replied?.

      Anytime! A DIY rebuild of the single Stromberg is obviously the cheapest option there. Even with the Spit spec engine the Herald couldn't be described as fast (and you'll be at ~900kg and 60 bhp in top tune right now!), but I can feel the nominally ~15 bhp extra. I only made the change myself as the engine had to come apart, I had a Spitfire head that already had hardened valve seats, and the car came with twin SUs, so it felt like it was a no brainer to change the cam too!
