Andy thx, I will let the guy know....cheers Carlos

Bob Thx a lot will do ...

Phil, thx a lot for the input. so .750 would be O.K on the front but I have doubts for the back. So I check all measurements and make sure he gets the right wheels... How is the quality of the wheels and the adapters ? I only have seen them on pics and they seem to be very nice, but how about a...

Guys, they guy that bought by Tornado is looking for some upgrades. He wants some knock on 15" wheels from vintage wheels and perhaps aluminum uprights that can carry a 6pot break caliper. My question is, who is using such a combo and how does it look on the car? Currently I don't...

Hi Andy, watching the fuel routing you did. It is the same way I did it with the two 90Degree Connector....While looking at it I was thinking if vibration can harm it over time ? What do you think...As said I did it the same way but not sure fit is the best way to do it ... Maybe any...

Jack.... southerngt.co.uk very good source.... cheers (C)arlos

Hmmm I only used pumped gas with 100 Octane, so very hard to believe.... As said I am not sure, the pistons look from the top quite ok. bit on the rich side but that was ok.... My fear is, I will never find it out what went wrong....However, I have a spare 289, 302 and 351 sitting there...

They did more then just the VW Chasis stuff, I remember I have seen a space frame... Cheers (C)arlos

Hi Tom, NO, on a Tornado this space is pretty much unused So I placed, Catch Tank, Armtech Battery Isolator, Fuelpump, pre-pump Fuel Filter, Starter Relay, and some other stuff there. If you cover the engine compartment from below it also stays quite dry, but I agree this is not the place to...

very cool.....

FiberFab was the first one in 1965 or 1966 ...you can find ads. from this years

Re: Should I put an access panel in? That is the right way to do it ....you will for sure need the space ....great work Cheers (C)arlos

Mike, agreed. THe machine shop should know ( at least that was my impression until today ) what they are talking about, they do engines sizing from Smart ( the car :-) ) up to engines for big ships. So are doing a lot of stuff for motorsports and are the preferred partner from Toyota here in...

Guys I can't emphasis enough how much value there is in the information you are providing What I will do is, I will try to make a scan from the gasket and we might be able to see what happened... I spoke to my machine shop ( they made a lot of engines for me already and never had a problem)...

Gord thx a lot for the detailed feedback....I might, after reading your questions get an idea what went wrong... But first let me answer your questions. - 302 out of 1972, HP no figures yet but should bee around 350 BHP, 11:1 - cast iron standard Ford Block - block bored, honed first...

pfssss.....you might be right you might be wrong that I did something wrong, but I have done quite a few engines and never ever lost a head gasket.......So we will never figure it out ( what a shame is )....It might was just a faulty set of gaskets...no idea...I stand here with big eyes...

Hi Trev, complete kits was around "sorry if I don't remember correctly" around 45.000 or so ....but ask him he is very friendly and responsive.... Pics are very cool from he website ....that's what I call a frame .. :-) ( even cowing they haven't been the stiffest one )

Trev, as always,great work. However, I would not close that are without thinking about an access panel, on both sides of the car. This is the area where I stored a lot of stuff, like fuel pump, Armtech Battery CutOff, Catchtank, Starter Relay and so on...Also If I would do the build again, I...

I don't know anything about the quality or reputation but sportscar.se from Goran Olsson seems to be very close... His response to a mail I send a some weeks ago. ////////// Hi Carlos! Yes we are still active and will update the webpage when 15 monocoques are delivered. That will be during the...

Wau guys, thx a lot of for the detailed feedback ... So what is in your opinion the best aftermarket gasket ? I used FelPro but I am not truly satisfied with it ...
