Thanks for any help and apologies for these questions as they are prob really simple i just cant seem to find the answer anywhere.
As TT says the Z6xr carbs are ideal for the cvh and much better than the Pierburg carbs. They are best with a stand alone ignition system, Megajolt is good at a reasonable price for the cvh. If i remember right, a google search will probably prove me wrong, but you need the carbs between series G and J for the tps then you get full 3D mapping for the engine.

All the rads will be suitable but there are different sizes, mainly the diesel versions which will not fit so go for the smaller petrol engine versions.
