  1. Looks virtually identical to the MANN one Roy - except no hex nut on the bottom end of the MAHLE one. Without the nut, getting hold of a short bowl can be tricky as it doesn't protrude past the lower edge of the chassis. Bob
  2. Thanks Trev, very useful to know and also thanks for popping up on here on a fairly regular basis with your input. Bob
  3. Home made obviously - and in condition B I'd say. Attach to same mounts as a full standard bumper. You are welcome to collect Colcheter, Essex OR Postage will be between 5 - 6 pounds, probably. Plus I'd appreciate a charity contribution which will go to Prostate Cancer UK fund. Bob
  4. Jim, as a good alternative to the HP2009, there are 2 really good quality MANN filters worth condsidering: W712/52 Short bowl with built in hex nut attached to the end for ease of removal. W719/52 Long Bowl with a built in hand grip pattern at the end of the can. Costwise MANN are less expansive than K&N plus I saw a post on here saying a K&N was not sealing well - maybne a one-off issue though? Regards Bob
  5. +1 Harry... & best of luck with the brakes.
  6. Made contact with a guy at the weekend who helped get these made - small batches for UK racing use some years ago. No company name involved. Now NLA but very fortunately he had one I needed so all sorted. Thanks for the suggestions all. Bob
  7. Thanks but again those rollers are shrouded, on mine the roller is visible from the top. It may be that something similar like this would work - but just not ideal. There must be someone out there who knows about them - they were in use in the UK. Bob
  8. Yes the Harland ones are close, but Roy is right (unfortunately), on mine the roller is visible from the topside whereas Harland's are shrouded. I've been thinking though (dangerous I know) but would it matter if i used a 'compatible' one with the same ratio? Bob
  9. Hi Nigel, thanks but no, they're not Goodparts - those currently on offer from Goodparts are quite a different shape if you look closely. Similar colour but thats all. Cheers Bob
  10. No Jonny, thanks for suggestion but its not that. One of the rocker arms has cracked & is unrepairable - not shown in photo. Need the whole thing - bearings, roller etc etc. Thx Bob
  11. Does anyone recognise these roller rockers? i'm looking for a possible supplier / manufacturer. Thought to be a few years old now, possibly unobtainable ? I need just one, same hand as marked with X. Any leads appreciated. Thanks Bob
  12. From Penrite : "Gear Box Oil 40 is an 25W-70 oil designed for use where SAE 40 or 50 oils were originally specified".
  13. K&N E9108 but sadly NLA I believe. GFE 1048 fits but a standard paper unit, FRAM etc etc Bob
  14. I haven't bought anything yet Peter - but it would be for a 6. Moss, Rimmers, Racetorations, Goodparts etc all sell as whole assemblies but the spares situation seems non-existant via these suppliers. Whats interesting is many assemblies look identical in the website pics - Certainly Moss, Goodparts and racetorations do so could potentially use common spares - but who makes 'em? I have a good used set on offer to me with one poor condition roller, but I need to find the parts source. Bob
