My (rather painful) record was at the end of a long whitewater slalom course at the World Masters in 1998. I was 52 years old. Approximately 200 bpm. I wasn't sure I was going to survice, but at least I won...

Then you'd probably be better off with a 302/331 (~350 bhp) with Webers for show.

I suggest you do some measuring before you buy a 429 series engine. It's quite a bit longer than the FE, even the SOHC version.

Coolers are non-directional but oil filters have a check valve to prevent reverse flow. Plumb them backward and you get no oil pressure or flow. In a filter, oil always flows from the outside into the center.

If you are using a remote filter, make sure that the connections are flowing oil in the correct direction.

Move the pivot point back, onto the main body. That will increase the clearance while the hood is opened.

We have also found that when using original GT40 cast wheels, 11.75" is the maximum rotor diameter in the front.

What brand of replica do you have?

I've got a very crude DWG 3D model of a 302 that includes the engine mount bosses (and some other stuff). Some of the surfaces are missing, but that shouldn't effect what you need. E-mail me at [email protected]

This is probably due to gyroscopic reaction. Not much you can do to change it except reduce the rotational inertia with lighter wheels and tires.

A copy of the ERA system. It even uses the same BMW slave. However, we put the bleeder at the top.

The temperature variation from side to side is way too much. Measuring the temperature of each pipe near the head will isolate any cylinder that's weak. Something's not right, either mixture-wise or even no ignition at all.

If it has a bolt-on steering arm, a custom (shorter) one might be the simplest path.
