  1. I've had a Revington tank (ali) in the car since 2002. No problems and a nice bonus is the increased capacity. Recommended! Adey
  2. The smaller Denso-type alternator allows it to be mounted a little further away from the manifold - I repeatedly fried 17ACR alternators, even with heat shield. (Had a Bosch equivalent for several years which was ok) Now switched to Denso version (from Racetorations with their very good mounting kit) - All seems fine 4 years in! Adey
  3. TR-Sized AirFlow chamber available Please PM me for details and price or message me on 07733084978 Can deliver in North-West-ish area Best Adey
  4. EZ CarLift has been really good - used it regularly for ~8years, still work fine. Made in the US of A, which may (or may not) be better than a Chinese option! Holden's now import them - You'll need a VERY good electric drill to operate it (>1000W) Adey
  5. I always wondered why "70C" degrees was mid-point on late (flat glass) TR4 gauges and "185F" on early (domed glass). No TR engine runs at 70C. 185F = 86C 158F = 70C Did someone at Smiths-Jaeger have a typo-moment? Hence the fudged/ revised sender? Anyway, my late gauge always read high until I got the correct, late sender. It now reads 70C bang-on. No need to calibrate gauge etc. Yours conspiratorily Adey PS: great to see some of you at the International - It's been too long!
  6. After a "solid" drive up the A49 on the way back from Malvern, 3rd/ 3rd O-D was perfect for pressing-on. I got so in tune with the O-D process that on the way to work the next day, in the eurobox, I got on the motorway, put it in 4th and flicked the wipers on! See you at Malvern Adey

    Just picked up my rebuild 'box from Pete and Tom Cox, supplied with Penrite GB40. That's a good enough endorsement for me! Cheers Adey

      Cheers, but still a concern until you have the ticket in your mitt!

  14. Hi Could any post a picture of the fuel pipe routing between HS6 carbs? It seems that the pipe either has to be clamped to the front of the air filters or just sort of "dangles" underneath. Is this right? cheers Adey
