    Rod C's Ohio RCR40

    Consider use of a pollack valve to return fuel from whichever tank it came from. I too have a 347 EFI and swirl pot and switch left or right pump and that’s it…

    My GT40 FINALLY Sees Some Sunshine!

    When it rains it pours… 0 miles last year having got the car back after 3 years of work by Taylor Automotive in time for Winter. A local trip to Donington Historic the other week and a longer run north Sunday to an advertised classic car show but which was nowhere to be seen on arrival. However...

    Face Vent (Eyeball) Assemblies

    Does anyone know which eyeball vent is fitted on a MDA as standard?.. my drivers eyeball has gone astray and not figured yet whether it has fallen in or out the housing, guessing the latter as it’s blowing a hooley at speed. Eitherway looking for a replacement to prevent reoccurrence.

    Raydot style window mounted side mirrors

    I recently moved from electric side mirrors (SVA) to fixed ‘bullet’ mirrors mounted on the front wheel arches. Pro’s are a period look and better rearward vision around Mk2 rear air scoops. Con’s are a nasty blind spot over both shoulders. Addition of cheap convex mirror mounted on a discreet...

    Possible new owner of a Ford gt. A lot of doubts

    I recall the same, and machined his own rims to fit a Countach tyre on the rear. Hopes for my first trip to Le Mans sank bleeding brakes at first light prior to a broken driveshaft on the way to the ferry. Maybe too much grip / oomph for a 90’s home built? We jumped into a backup car where I met...

    Possible new owner of a Ford gt. A lot of doubts

    Ken Saunders moved to France circa 2000 with his KVA, along with Mike Osborne with a Tornado to renovate a farmhouse ‘Forty Towers’. I believe Ken held onto the car until his passing in 2019.

    A GT40 For The Taller Person

    I’m 6’2 with a MDA mk2 near Newark (Notts). My athletic build ran away some time ago but do have head and leg room to spare. No bubble, with a seat pan fixed directly to a lowered floor. The seat base is pitched up an inch or two at the front for confort and gain extra leg room. Car is elsewhere...

    Alternative Energy Sources discussion

    We think alike… and not much to go wrong. GT should be back with me soon. An ECU upgrade to sequential injection and maybe gain a few extra mpg there too?

    Alternative Energy Sources discussion

    Still running a 2010 Ford Focus diesel estate as a daily driver… ignoring lights, radio & a clock no electric anything and dash says 62.1mpg. An entertaining game of maximising mpg in traffic whilst not arriving any later than using a lead foot. Mpg stat not reset since I bought it. On balance I...

    Isle of Man TT fastest ever lap 136.358mph

    I can only think many laps around the TT develops a muscle memory to proactively shift body weight etc in advance of bumps and turns. At these speeds a ‘reaction’ is too late and you are in a hedge (or worse).

    AP mk1 twin turbo

    Can you share a link for the GPS module? Can assistance be dialled down if too much? Have a Corsa EPS in a ‘40 with a non GPS box of tricks which is too light for my liking at anything above parking speeds.
