I am going through ERA #2077 (ex-Jim Holden) and have come to the fuel cells. The fuel cells are at least 14 years old and the foam is disintegrating and collecting in the filters. These fuel cells are HDPE blow molded plastic, unique to the ERA application. They ride in an aluminum tray, which...

Car has SOLD! Thanks for looking and a big thanks to GT40S.COM :)

Sent you a PM ... regards, Sam

Superformance GT40 MkI - GT40P2306 $169,900 USD or best offer Originally delivered new to the U.S. in May 2014, P2306 is built with Right Hand Drive (RHD). Like the historic cars, P2306 features a Right Hand Sill Shifter with solid rod direct connection to the transaxle. Any driver can easily...

Ron, this is where I think I am headed. I did get hold of Dennis this am and he confirms what you said about the swirl pot. The pumps are not additive because the swirl pot is also dumping into the 0 psi tank return. But he thinks pump 2 is a 7 psi pump and he's mystified as to why it is making...

Got it, thanks again Neil! Sam

Rick, yes, I intend to call Dennis and pick his brain this week. But I usually learn a lot from the other owners on this forum so I thought I'd ask. Just read the stiff throttle cable thread above ... been fooling with that for months :rolleyes:

Thank you Neil. What do you think about the tank return from the swirl tank, as opposed to the end of the fuel log? Should I plumb around the spare pump, or will it pass fuel freely? Sam

Maybe this will be an easy answer ... I came from CAV to SPF and I am accustomed to dual fuel pumps. But ... 2306 has me confused. It has two Carter bulkhead mount electric pumps in series pulling from the left tank. One is in the left sill pocket and one is on the firewall. There is only a -12...

P2306 with a Camaro bracket, heavily modified, and Rick's Lite n Boltz: Bracket: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sle-59388 I cut about 3" of the mounting flange off, turned it upside down and used it as a clamp. There are no holes in the body. 3M tape underside of the body to stick it, and...

Congrats John! What is it titled as? Sam

Ron, maybe you have done this already, but - small ground back to the regulator is not sufficient by itself. Check that there is a good ground path from the alternator case to the engine block, and a heavy cable from the block to the batt neg post. Good luck! Sam

Dave, the SPF MkI P2359 bid closed at $150K and went to "Bid Goes On" status. We don't know if it sold later. But when you add the buyer's premium, transportation, taxes, it would be getting too close to retail to go for much more than that. The Shelby MkII was a steal (I thought it was...

Dave, your advice was on the money :) I used some 2-part Loctite Superglue specifically for bonding plastic. It needs to set up overnight. I'll wiggle it tomorrow to see if it stuck. If not, I'll use a brass hose barb and thread it in ... Many thanks! Sam

Thanks Dave! Yes, it's RHD so I'm opening it up and will report back ... Sam

As of last week, I now own P2306 and have been going over the car. Everything is generally in order except this clear vinyl hose under the bonnet. It dumps to the road thru the front pan, but the other end has a broken black plastic hose fitting. I can't find where it would connect to. Have felt...

Gus, yes I used the R coded clutch. That decision was per Dennis Olthoff. The reverse hub gives a little more penetration of the input shaft spline vs the regular hub. I can't tell you the regular hub won't work, but Olthoff uses the R version in his installs with the RBT. I sent the car back...

Thanks for setting this up Gary. I plan to attend. I don't have a thong, would a codpiece be sufficient :huh: Sam

Bob, I've done Sam Pack's several times. We go there every May for the Spring Hot Rod meet. I'd meet you guys for lunch somewhere if you decide to have a November get together. Sam

Jimmy, congrats on a fantastic day! I am going to put my megaphones back on for the weekend events I have coming ... :thumbsup: Sam
