Scottybaccus... Yup, that applies. Makes great sense, easy to do and with no cost. Perhaps this first then. I'm starting to get a really...
I have no doubt that you are aware that our 99 octane(pump) equates roughly to your 94. The Race fuel is Sunoco 102 which being a US brand... It...
Useful stuff guys. I have refined the 'squirter' cam's a little, going for those with the most initial. The 'absolute' dose is probably enough...
I, reckon that I've read most of the Holley threads on the forum but I haven't come across anything that relates to my problem. Most concern...
Although I agree with your sentiment, I'm glad Steve didn't. It keeps mine unique (I think!) Jerry
Beg, borrow or steal the cash. Some have sold for around $200k in the 'States very recently which although a HUGE amount is nothing like what they...
Re the grill. 100% not Allard, sorry. Then J type grills are made from Alloy sections welded together The rest were Brass soft soldered together....
Steve. Just to inspire you for the last push. Taken about an hour ago. Thought that it'd be good to go for a little drive in the country. [IMG]
Interesting to see how the European Karts went away from the more traditional American design really quite quickly. Here's our '64 Tecno Puima...
Please send Bill Pollack my best, I have never met him but a copy of his book ordered the minute I heard of it. When it arrived I was surprised...
D-oh! Thanks for that!
It's over 50 years since Art Ingles dreamed up the (Go) Kart. Here in the UK like in the USA we have a rapidly growing 'vintage' Karting scene....
Old Dawg You are spot on about Allard handling. Recently some of the racers here in the UK have been making J2 and J2Xs indecently fast. First...
Great progress Steve. Nearly ready then..? Thanks for the updates, brightened some dreary days and gave me some inspiration to go out and...
The LeMay JR race car is here in the UK and could probably be bought, all you need to do is rob a bank for the cash! Oh and you are behind me...
Dammit, couldn't resist the polishing machine! [IMG]
Mine arrived this AM, beautiful quality. Now... To polish or not to polish???
Air powered one. Push the trigger, dugga noise, nope no grease, try again, dugga. No, still none. Bleed it (again) ......dugga, dugga, duga,...
Great, it's all starting to make sense. The 64 lightweight cars are the ones I want to tell the readers about as the concept is so strange to the...
HI all. I'm writing a feature on the top 20 saloon cars from the last few decades for a UK magazine. I want to include a couple of hundred...
Suggested early on in the thread that used motor oil would clean your hands.... Aargh, major skin cancer risk! If you live in a hard water...
Ok the accident was a real pain but it kind of did you (and your grandpa) a favour. It allowed you to find the hidden rust which has been dealt...
I suppose the run it / don't run it argument comes down to the application. If its a sports or race motor, it's as you say new block time. If it's...
Before you blast the fuel regulator have a trawl around the internet for threads about removing anodising. I seem to remember that caustic soda...
:) Wahooooooooo! can't wait. Great looks and no leaks, perfect!
I went a little mad restoring a Lotus Elan and ended up spending around £10K ($15k) on the body, then another £20k on the rest (yeah I know). It...
And?????
Nope, Close but no cigar! Although no limit is a hoot... (George Formby 1935) The design is based on FJ Hicks 1925 Brooklands AJS. See Dr J...
For fun here are a few details of it. Left hand bar . Valve lifter, clutch, axuilliary oil, advance and retard [IMG] Right hand bar. Front brake...
That's just what I'm asking... Just to stir the hornets up a little further... If a bike can be 'hot-rodded' is it therefore a hot rod?
