The V8 Owners Forum -

Stevie, I agree with all you have stated about Earl`s, they have made other hoses for me in the past and they have been spot on. This time they have made two PAS hoses, size -6, both have leaked between the olive and the part that compress it. None of the parts that were threaded leaked at the threa...

Chris, Thanks for that, though not a range rover Its a lot higher than I expected and a decent guideline. I have had two pressure hoses made by `Earls` at Silverstone and both of them leak though I am not prepared to blame Earls something somewhere is wrong. I am using the original Ford pump and rac...

Anyone know what the "Where abouts" pressure should be in a power steering system.? The manual (Fords own) tells me everything I need to know except the pressure produced by the pump, so yes I have RTFM. The problem I have here seems to be over pressure at the outlet of the pump.

HI, That is looking nice, clean & posh Soon be time to upset the "Boy Racers" in their shopping trolleys.

JP,
`Tremec` who make all the T5 boxes now including the world class ones, would not agree with you.

Back again ...... £1620 plus vat = 1944 ..........£1700 + £30 delivered No vat looks better.

Hi, With regards to your speedo cable for the `tang box. Have you tried any of the American car site here in the UK? They may help n locating them or provide an alternative method. With the UK pound as it is buying from the USA gets expensive what with all the taxes that have to go on top. If you bu...

HI, Yes it is ........ I paid the £1700 as that was the price asked when about 15 others were watching the site and bidding. I paid with the "By it now" and sod it. I always wanted one of these 251 boxes anyway.

The price was £1700 ....No VAT but £30 for delivery extra, got it in 48 hours.
