    Just put wr78 in the 2500s, runs well with plenty of oomph. Pops could be over fueling, fuel ign in the hot exhaust

    Now if someone annoyed you, their dust caps could be changed to them, wonder how long till they noticed!

    Looks brilliant, but devon in a day is probably my limit. Haven't been over since 1977! And then it was south of the border in my dads vauhall victor!

    Thicker gasket paper to give it something to bite onto, blue holmer (can't spell it correctly!) To help seal.

    Of the top of my head there is an article on how to make the voltage stabiliser. I remember using it to convert mine. Unfortunately i can't remember from where! It was a while ago as i got the parts from maplins.

    There was i parked in baldock services and look what parked up. I was curious, and they happened to go to the same place as me in Huntington ! Was a bit busy for me there so made my way back home. Really nice drive out, covered about 125 miles which is more than i did for the whole of last year!

    As pete points out, stainless with stainless when done up to a torqued can "seize " what we call "pick up". If your lucky you can get out of it , plenty of lubrication and winding backwards and forwards to avoid shearing. Then the threads need cutting if needing to use again. Stainless is very hard, gets harder with heat! Its tensile strength is poor, thus its tendency to shear. As pete suggests stick with standard for a long term solution.

    Off the top of my head the wiring is a little different and check the length for the propshaft!
  23. Mathew
    Is it me or is it the most hard to get too one goes! My first spitfire it was the rear head one!
  24. Mathew
    Stainless studs and tight stainless nuts, not the best. Stainless tends to pick up . Its strength is not in tension. We have had machines that have sheared heads when put under stress.

    Yes at last a drive out! Running really well , a real mile muncher. Had a few people even look!
