  1. I'm in Sydney and my cars only get to 185 in heavy traffic. On the road they don't get much above 165 even on 35degC + days. I have aa TR2 and TR3 so have the ducting from the apron. I also use a Tridon thermostat recommended above with a restrictor in the bypass in the TR3 and a skirted thermostat in the TR2. The TR2 has an electric fan manually operated and I rarely turn it on, even in the traffic I experience living close to the city in the inner west.

  4. Hi Laurence,

    Yes I was in the RAN full-time from 1972 until 1998 and then on the Reserves until 2020. Most of my full-time career was in the Fleet Air Arm, flying in Grumman Trackers when we had a carrier and then a couple of years on helicopters off frigates. Then a variety of jobs paying off in 1998 as Commanding Officer of the submarine base in Sydney.

    If you can figure out the cost to package and post to the following we can sort something out.

      I need your email address and a phone number.  The former is for Aus customs the latter so the courier can let you know of arrival date/time.
