The standard fit of an HIF44 (1.75) on an Ital/Metro/Mini manifold is
reeeeeeeealy cheap and reeeeeeealy available, with a cast LCB and a cast
inlet a-la-MG Metro. I'm told Mr Vizard regarded this very highly.
Certainly Rover group were very happy with it, having used it for so many
years as the standard fit. Runs as standard on low and high comp 1275s with
standard and improved cam profiles. More power from a standard Metro than
from a standard Spridget. JPEG anyone ?(Not you Herb, that's already in
your file!)
Get my sister a job in the US and I'll post you one for free, Jeff!
