I'm having trouble visualizing that--could you explain?

Jay- Thank you for the info. Yes, the bottom mounting points have aluminum bushings pressed in. It could have been done for rigidity since the engine is also bolted directly to the frame, as are the upper two mounting bosses on the transaxle. Barrya and James- High Duty Alloys has got to...

The clutch is a two disc unit, but I have no idea if they were in wide use then or not- I posted a question about it some time ago- here's the thread http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-tech-powertrain-transaxles/22484-vintage-clutch-questions.html Since then, I read over this old clipping that...

When I got my bell housing separated from the ZF and cleaned up, I noticed these casting IDs. It got me wondering what the "HDA" logo represented and if the 7-5307 was a road car part number. Anyone know?

Idiot. If you must scratch yourself, turn your back to the cameras!

David- Yes, Avianca Flight 52 hit a deck of a residence when they went down on final to JFK. I found a link to the NTSB accident report and the cockpit recording . It's an interesting parallel--and dramatic contrast. ASN Aircraft accident Boeing 707-321B HK-2016 Cove Neck, NY...

That's quite an insight into the decision loop of a professional pilot in a situation that was completely unforeseeable. Their crew coordination must have been phenomenal. I remember reading a CVR from a 707 accident where the crew didn't notify the controller that they were min fuel until a...

I came across this video and, besides the great cars, there were some great drivers in this race. YouTube - Croft Spins

Mike- Do you have a photo showing the linkage detail on that car? It looks like two cables pass under the turkey pan, but that could just be a reflection.

I have a hard time equating crime with poverty. There are just too many examples of poor societies with low crime rates not to see that as an excuse. But you make a valid point Jim- every religion, nationality, and race has been hated and victimized by some group at one time or another...

Whether the source of the story is one you like or not doesn't seem to me to be the issue. It's whether the situation reported by the story is factual or not. I have been to Paris to visit a friend who lives there, and there really are areas that are suicide for a white Christian (or God...

Ian- Here's a thread with some info that might be helpful. http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-tech-engines-induction-exhaust/18047-track-boss-manifold-302-w-351-c-2-v-heads.html

You know, I paid about $4,800 for my '67 E-Jag, which was a lot in 1967, but not out of the reach of an Air Force 2nd Lt. All carbon-fiber frames and 500 HP twin turbo engines are great to watch on Top Gear, but the $250,000+ that these cars cost is not a realistic price for the 98% of us who...

James- Mine is just sitting in a box until I can get my ZF overhauled. I can loan it to you if that would help. John

While this one isn't a remake, I do think they should rethink the upturned rear body styling. Looks a bit too much like the old +2 model for my taste, but overall, a lovely car.
