Hi All
Is there anything that can be learned from looking at a Ford GT a very modern well thought out car that is probably faster than most of the cars that are built or owned by members here. The shape is similar (I guess).
Its a fascinating question really. You wouldn't like to find out...
Hi Erik
Yes I have considered cable shift and I think it probably would be an easier solution to set up. My perception rightly or wrongly is that the solid rods, uni-joints and ball joints would give me a very direct very 'solid' feel and this appeals to me somehow.
But I am always ready to...
Thanks Chris.
I was not so sure for what ever reason I could do that set up on the right, so thats good news. Chris do you have a all rod setup? I kind of like that idea of just rods and joints and pivots.
Hi All
I am installing a Porsche G50-01 transaxle in my Roaring Forties GT40. The RF normally has a Audi box fitted, obviously not all of them but the Audi is the gearbox the factory sells as 'standard'. The standard position for the gear change is to the right of the driver in a right hand...
Hi All
I thinking about painting the engine and gearbox and I wanted to ask anyone on here who has done this what are the pro's and con's of doing this?
Also what is the best sort of paint (and or what brand) to use. My preference would be a silver or metal type finish/colour but this is in no...
Thank you all for your input. Im checking out the alternatives of which there seem to be quite a few. I am looking for the flat topped ones really, as they look better and by the sound of it that is a more authentic look. So thanks again.
Hi
This is directed I guess at the American members of the forum. Have any of you ever purchased anything from a company called Mustalgia?
MUSTALGIA.COM Product List
Has anyone purchased any petrol caps from them in the past? It is just that they seem to be perpetually out of stock. Which...
Hi Kevin
I have an RF and I have just had to fill my steering rack after the original oil that was in there leaked out. I looked into it a bit on this and other forums and come up with 80W/90 gear oil. About 250 mill seemed to do it.
By the way are you in Adelaide?
Troy
Thats a hell of a car your putting together. Just out of curiosity roughly what is the cost of the ARE sump?
The engine mount is a after market mount designed I think for the fitting of an Ls1-2 into an old sedan. The RF chassis that I have has a massive engine bay which means I have to...
Gday Troy
I have the engine in the Chassis as we speak. And what Im looking at when I have the engine, and in particular the gearbox, as low as they can go and in an acceptable position front to back are FIVE points that have about 10mm of clearance.
The area where the sump curves over the...
I have attempted to find a post I saw some time ago but I cant find it. The post or thread explained the procedure for installing the clutch into a Porsche G50 XX and how to make use of an elastic band and gaffa tape to hold the release fork temporarily in place. Can someone help out here. Thanks.
Clayton
Thanks mate. This loos like a good possibility and they have some sort of outlet here in Adelaide. Ace! And you stopped me from ordering a 12" which I thought may be ok. Thanks again.
Hi all
At some stage in the not to distant future I will have to purchase a Air Conditioning Condenser. Does anyone out there know from what brand and model of car a suitably dimensioned unit can be sourced ? Or any specialty unit that may be available.
Thanks.
