  1. Good question - I've only ever replaced them as a complete item but I'm guessing they must come apart somehow. Who did you buy the service kit from - can they help ?
  2. see you there.
  3. According to my maths there should plenty of room on the stand for you and your car Trev. Hopefully see you there
  4. If it was me I would have kicked that cup of tea over within seconds of putting it down There is a good chance that the engine had it's compression reduced in some way - head spacer, thicker head gasket or similar when the supercharger was fitted. If so you would really need to put it back to standard if you removed the supercharger. I would imagine it would be easy to re-map the ecu but I don't know enough to help there - hopefully someone else can give you some info. on that. It might be worth explaining exactly what problems you're having with it and seeing if anybody knows of any easy fixes ............. if there ever are such things.
  5. Just had a look myself and think I'm in the same boat as Jim - I'd have to go past Kimbolton to the meeting point. Not only that but I've got 120+ miles and a good couple of hours drive so it won't take much of a hold up to spoil my timekeeping - I'll see you there (I hope). Are you planning on taking anything club-wise Al ? I've got a folding table that I "acquired" and may be quite useful which I'll stick in boot.
  6. I'm pretty sure that there's an O ring at the bottom of the dizzy to seal it into the block, but I can't remember there being any seals inside. It's a few years since I had a pinto dizzy apart and I'm working from memory - which is not as good as it used to was. I'll have a look through my collection of useless information and see if I can find anything else out for you. Steve
  7. All being well I'll be there, probably coming across the M6 then A14 as the A50 has roadworks.
  8. The only issue I can think of is if you are looking to get an age related registration number. You would then need to show proof of the minimum number of parts from the original donor vehicle, or alternatively you would need to provide proof of the minimum number of new parts for a new reg number. Either way I don't imagine an LSD will make any difference to the IVA test ............................ however, somebody may know otherwise
  9. Congratulations on getting it sorted. Now it's welcome to the world of kit cars where there is always something that needs doing, or something you want to change on the car, but always fun to drive it
  10. I've just looked at the latest weather forecast and it could be warm and dry on Thursday evening - plenty of time for it to change before then though
  11. You're just trying to confuse an old man aren't you - well you succeeded I've booked plot 25 from Friday to Sunday - as ever I'll do my best to be there ........... barring normal disasters I haven't booked my pass out yet so I'll have to let you know about the meal later. Steve
  12. I'm impressed, it's looking very professional and if you carry on at this rate you'll be on the road by the weekend
  13. All being well I'll see you there - just because I drank your beer last month it doesn't mean you can drink mine this month
  14. Hi Matt, Welcome to the club. Your area secretary is Andrew Wilkinson (Grim) and you can contact him via the "Staff" page on the blue section at the top of this page. You'll find a message button by his name. He should be the best person to answer your questions and will let you know of any area meets.

    I'm not sure how the coil-overs are fitted on your car but can you fit a spacer under the bottom mount (or above the top) ?
