  1. I run a cammed pinto on bike carbs .i have a 82 stat and a honda civic alloy rad and an wxpansion bottle..its not ducted and doesnt overheat.ever. Although when i first got it i thought it did. It was badly earthed block that send readings all over . Sort your leaks .check the actual temp..go from there
  2. Happy birthday fella...have a top day
  3. tell us more. do you have any louvres or vents in the bonnet at all. is the firewall sealed from the cockpit. youll be surprised how many aren't. check all the sides and top , grommets fitted etc what engine is it..do you have a heater . is it stuck on hot. we can give some good advise from there. but simply exhaust wrap makes a huge difference.although not all will say its a benfit. ive run it for 4 years with no issue. and it isn't expensive
  4. Never saw you mate..terry left prob 3 ish...later for me
  5. Maybe I should put barnsley s70 too ..lol
  6. I go to this regular if anyone's interested me .tazzzman and cma are going to be there. Ideally aim to be there for 10am as it can soon fill up with 100 plus classic and retro etc vehicles . To enter your car is 3 or 4 quid for the car can't remember..to visit is free
  7. I got my speedo from etc and their calibration involved counting rotations knowing the circumference. I wonder what difference would be if you pumped the tyre really up.any ?
  8. I beg to different..a rotation is still a rotation.surely. With weight on it may squash but that stays the same as it rotates A lower profile will rotate more over a given distance . I'll happily be proven wrong though
  9. Can't see why it won't work.. Loaded or unloaded a circumference is the same.
  10. Well after a run out yesterday. The fuel pump decided to fall apart.im not going to attempt to mend it.before I buy a new one..anyone got one going spare I can purchase from them

    What engine and car model agent z ??
  20. Some coilovers will tie the rear down better. Also camber wedges will help..got mine not fitted them yet . Camber is tweak able on the pillars. Also upgrade that bottom bolt /stud. Don't ask me how I know
  21. if I remember right castor is not adjustable on a SP car. only camber and toe
