    Surely, you can't be serious Vk boy?! Wheel stand!

    A stock VK with a K&N and a Holley could barely spin its wheels, let alone do a wheel stand!

    If yours can do a wheel stand, i think its got enough power, you don't need any mods done mate.

    I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of members who'll give you a bit of advice. Just spare us the Bulls**t mate and you'll be right.

    Oh yeah, Welcome aboard.

    I see. That would make more sense.

    There you go, you've learnt something already.

    Given that you already have a holley carbie on there, there isn't too much you can bolt on to improve performance.

    A good start would be to replace all your filters. Maybe do an oil change and flush out the cooling system.

    Perhaps a set of extractors wouldn't go astray. Even just a set of extractors from a black EFI motor will make a difference.

    i didnt think the extractors from an efi black motor would suit a carby powered black motor as i was once told by my exhaust place they could not fit them because the heads differnt.

    Its been done before on VK's. I think the manifold needs a little bit of modification at the mounting points to fit but nothing too hard. I put a set from an EFI black motor on my old VB red motor. It was fine, just a straight swap.

    I thought the black heads were the same on carbie and Efi motors. Could be wrong though.

    The ports are NOT different between a black carbie head and a black EFI head. EFI 202 headers will fit a carbie 202, you just need to block off the EGR port on them.

    Sorry - didnt mean to offend. I never pretend to know what I don't. My last post was more of a question than a statement and it has been edited to reflect that.
