I have just tried this and there is not sufficient clearance to fit the flywheel. Having just used the stand for a stag V8 build I found the weight made rotating the engine very heavy even with an extended handle. I cured this by modifying the stand head to include deep groove bearings and introduced a 3 to one gear set with brake. So much easier. Side mounting is OK for a 4 pot engine but no use on a Vee plus on the TR4 you would have to fabricate a frame to pick up on available fixings. Neil

I have placed an advert in classifieds for an original NOS crankshaft. It is ex MOD stock in heavy black grease and perfect. Neil

I used Richard Powney who live in Denmark for my TR4 rev counter. May have an exchange in stock. He will change face colours etc. and calibrate. Excellent service and very competitive. Neil

I have 25mm Kingspan on the door and made a seal from DPC material looped over itself to create a balloon that seals the top gap and sides. On the bottom I have fitted foam pipe lagging. Dramatic reduction in drafts and temperature control. Neil

Is the lifting eye just for production assembly of lifting the cylinder head not the full engine. Neil

I seem to remember reading that the machining dimension for the oil seal diameter had been incorrectly quoted in some documents. If this is the case and your crankshaft has been machined in this way there may not be a seal that will stop the leak. Neil -

Is there any info on registration for pride of ownership for the ICW yet? I see that the modified cars have started a list. Neil

My solution was to install cigar socket in the ash tray location (easy to put back) I run positive earth so socket is fed and fused in an isolated negative earth. Neil
