    valve cover designs for GT40 engines

    The fit could be an issue depending on the use of roller rockers and/or their size... it was for me, anyway. :thumbsdown: Am crossing my fingers for you, Jim. T.

    Things to see and do in Seattle.

    Dave, The weather this weekend is looking excellent. You've picked a great time for a visit. When you're cruising through Everett on your way in, take a quick 3-minute trip west on Hwy 526 for a drive-by of the Boeing plant where final assembly of the 747/767/777/787 is performed...

    I just need to vent..

    John, Only weeks after my first ever new car purchase, my car was dented while at the dealership for warranty work. Understandably I wasn't happy about it, but they assumed responsibility after the issue was pointed out. I was assured that the situation would be repaired to my satisfaction...

    Hello

    Jeff, Congrats on your newest acquisition, and welcome. I'm a bit over 6' and have no trouble at all in a 40, so you should find it more than comfortable. Getting in and out of a 40 is a piece of cake, moreso when compared to the Lotus. My cousin also has an Elise, and I found it...

    Something to ponder!

    Given the group of elected officials in our general area, Cliff, this isn't a real hard choice though. What a pity we can't get rid of our Governor as well. T.

    Jokes anyone? -

    A boy and his date were parked on a back road some distance from town, doing what boys and girls do on back roads some distance from town. Things were getting hot and heavy when the girl stopped the boy. "I really should have mentioned this earlier, but I'm actually a hooker and I charge...

    289/302-Wet or Dry sump Best?

    I had a look at the Dailey Engineering website yesterday afternoon, and was impressed enough to call. Appreciate the hyperlink, John. Had a nice conversation with a chap about their dry sump systems for a Ford 302 and learned that it would run in the range of $6,000 US for everything needed...

    Flying out to DTW and RCR

    Allen, Kudos for your attention to detail. For whatever it's worth, you might want to connect with forum member Ray Maserang III and inquire about his experience with reworking tire sidewalls, as I understand he went the same path as you're headed. Looking forward to seeing your car one...

    Audi V8's

    Mike, One of our good friends down-under has gone the turbocharging route and, even by 40 standards, it's pretty impressive. Have a look at one of Bobski's threads (click HERE) as well as some of his others. I'm sure there's a number of good answers to questions you might have at this stage...
