I was thinking of putting a set of R1 bike carb's on my C20XE i believe i will need:
Set of R1 carbs+air filter/s
Throttle+choke cable
Custom manifold (maybe Bogg Bros)
3bar fuel regulator
Fuel pump (R1 pump possibly)
Am i missing anything? And what have people done about the alternator not fitting with boog bros manifold? I've had a look at the fitting guide Total Vauxhall released so I've got a general idea just want tips etc..
Cheers

I have found its alot easier and cheaper to get a vacuum advance dizzy over standalone management.
On the bay, i paid about £5 delivered for mine, and its new and ready to go. Take the vacuum off your brake servo pipe that would normally go to the inlet and a little pipe on the right.
The 1.6 dizzy is too small and wont fit IIRC. You need a 18e pin type.
The fuel pump in the corsa is fine as standard, i have used a filter king regulator that drops the PSi from 60 down to 5, and then the sytec regulator to control the pressure down to 2.5.
I have used a temporary measure for the alternator, but have got to make up a propper bracket at some point.
