    T Series Engine Help

    Hi Dan The superspec uses the mt75 gearbox with an adapter plate, Morgan cars also used the T series engine for a number of years but I dont know what box they used, may be worth a search? As for engine dims I will get the tape out when I can unless someone else can get it done first. Whats your location? maybe some one local with a superspec Steve

    Panic!

    I don't think it has to be working BUT the car WILL over heat on static run tests ie exhaust and MPH. If the fan is ignition controled ie swiches off when the ignition is off then just connect the 2 wires together at the thermostatic switch and it will run all the time the ignition is on. If its not ignition fed then put a switch in the circuit you dont have to have it dashboard mounted it could be in the engine bay as long as you can get to it when required, then sort out the system will you are waiting for your plates. HTH Steve I MUST LEARN TO TYPE FASTER
  14. Sorry could not resist
  15. If you look at all the other posts on zimmers you will see the problems? I Changed out my front coilovers after 350 miles because of no damping and worn bushes. Once off the car and the springs removed there was no compresive damping at all, rebound was a little better but compared to the Gaz shocks on setting 1 (of 36) they were Sh*te. If Any one wants the zimmers I still have them and are free for collection but they would not even get through an MOT with the bushes. Steve

    S7 On Ebay

    Cant remenber the site but its been on here a couple of times - if you put the reg in it gives you the make and model? Any one remember the details? Steve
  17. As long as the shocks are not "zimmers" Read the posts on shocks before you buy, otherwise you will end up buying 2 sets, one set now and a new proper set in 6 months time. Steve

  21. Hi Joel Dont know if it will be any use as I know most people are stuck for space as it is, but some diesel alternators come with a vacuum pump like this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rover-400-Diesel-Alt...1QQcmdZViewItem or http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Astra-diesel-Alterna...1QQcmdZViewItem Dont know much about them but with a bit research could be a cheap option Steve
