Oversize pistons and full rebore is the way forward.

Hi Steve, gutted to hear about engine.. Sounds like detonation which burns down the side of the piston, pretty much like what happend to my red top .. I Your compression seems high on the good cylinders, what should it be?. I run thick head gasket which gives low compression, that allows me to run high boost without pinking. Let me know what you find. Cheers, Kerry

Sorry guys wont be able to make this date due to holiday commitment. Cheers, Kerry

Will be up for that, best check I am not on holiday first. Cheers, Kerry

Hi, I posted earlier, I may be up for this but not camping, just a run out, but like mower man it depends on the date. Cheers,

Sounds like its worth a visit, not to far for me so no camping

Hi Steve, Its a good solid engine, and worth the trouble, not sure how Steve (stockport)is getting on with his inlet manifold, I made a custom unit. There is enough room for intercooler, but plenty of ventilation in the engine bay is important. Kerry I

count me in Phil

It was a great day, well worth going. Mick, I never saw you there but your car was parked near my tin top near the park.

Interesting day? check link out http://www.brmday.co.uk/

I am based at Oakham Le15 and 3.92 still available

I have 2 diffs for sale, 3.62 for use with push in shafts £50 3.92 complete with push in shafts and hubs, all in good condition £100 PM if anyone is interested otherwise I will put them on e-bay

I have a pair of calipers, discs and mounting plates for 2B, discs are pitted but usable,and the conversion plate will bolt on without removing drive shafts. For a rear disc conversion all you will need extra is hand brake cable. I can deliver to Donnington show this week end. I would like £60 for the lot Pm me if your interested. Cheers, Kerry

Hi, I have 2 diffs, 3.62, or 3.92, the 3.92 was changed for lsd due to noise, which turned out to be propshaft. Both diffs are push in. pm me if your interested.

check your pm, cheers,Kerry

I need a sierra 7" rear diff, anyone got one to sell?

Looking forward to it, we may even get a late summer, well its not started yet.

Sorry you couldnt make it Phil. Thanks for a good evening guys, nice to see a good turn out.

i will be there weather being ok.

I converted my 2B a couple of years ago. Yuo can use Megasquirt for the fuel and ignition, although mine is fitted with bike carbs and Megasquirt. I removed servo and pedals and fitted Zero pedals along with Ford KA master cylinder and mintex 1144 front pads. I have a turo vxr engine in the garage so I may be pulling redop out soon. What gear box will you use?

weather being ok I should make it

can other members come and watch?

it worked ok on my 2b after i extended the brake pedal

During the xe convertion I have removed the sierra servo, removed the master cylinder from the servo and fitted the brake master cylinder back onto the car, when removing the master cylinder from servo, should I keep the white Nylon spacer fitted to the piston push rod or remove it? With it still on it may limit the amount of brake pedal movement before the brakes are fully applied. What is the spacer for? Any thoughts on this guys. Cheers

I may take you up on that offer, must say I can do most things but a sewing machine is unfamiliar territory.
