What is the shaft diameter - some people on the GT40 site may be able to help as most of them are running 302's with all types of boxes attached!

Pretty well covered for SVA if they are E marked - that is all the testers looked for What ever you choose to do make sure you can adjust the belts without needing to remove seats etc, So many of the SABelts etc have the adjusters very near the mount bolts and in a car like the Gt40 that puts the ad...

Tank Pump Filter Carb should work Tank Filter Pump Carb could cause cavitation as pumps far prefer to push than suck On the 40 - long thin tanks in the side sills under braking and the fuel sloshed forward leaving the tank outlet dry and the pump (Facit Red) pumps air - this increases it's volume ab...

These flames are great but some caution With fuel burning in the Exhaust - is the flame burns back quickly it can blow the seam on the rear silencer. Happeed a few times on GT40 Kits but then mainly on the track and being over fed by Holly Carbs Big flame followed by bang and silencer opened up! Ian

GT40 Kits 300lb fronts and 400 rears Engine in the middle bot about 40 / 60 weight with more on the rear. Total weight about 1100kg So I would think your springs are way too soft. Now I happen to know where I can get abatch of these in a box if you want to do trial and error tests. They would need a...

Rob I agree Put the tax on the petrol Make the MOT a tax style disc That way all the untaxed cars currently on the road pay their share If you do not have a current MOT it is visible to all It also will mean that the numerous cars appearing with Polish, Czech etc. plates with long term stayers will ...

My initial thoughts was for the return from the fuel rail back into the swirl pot, and from the swirl pot back into the fuel tank. I don't know in reality how much fuel would flow from the swirl pot back into the fuel tank though. I agree returning from the fuel rail straight back into the fuel tan...

Gents I likewise think this is a good idea BUT this stuff costs and someone needs to stock it and be prepared to do the mailing it out bit and collect the £££.
