I would agree with the suggestion of contacting Jim Inglese. He really knows his stuff. I have a 351 windsor stroked to 427 with 48 IDAs. I had Jim rebuild them and set up the linkage properly (needed a new pivot point to avoid locking on full throttle!). The key is definitely having the floats...

That would have been a trip I wouldn't have minded doing, but I am not available this weekend. It would have been a nice drive down from SF. I will have to look to one of the future events. Karl

Hi Cliff, I found that 5 could be too much. I had 4.5 and 6 and had issues, but 3 was perfect. Just my experience with Webers. Redline suggest 2.5 to 3 IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW Regards, Karl

I had exactly the same issues. It turned out to be a mix of different things. First I found that the timing advance and retard was sticking on the MSD distributor. I could have cleaned it but it was easier in my case to just switch it. This stopped the backfire that had been appearing and...

I think that this may be of interest and give some more information that people are not aware of: Jordan and refugees: "Of these, only 100,000 live in refugee camps, while another 1.3 million are hosted within local communities. In total, Syrians now make up 21 per cent of Jordan's 6.7...

I found that I couldn't post if I had a https link. I tried to post from YouTube. I removed the "s" so it is not a secure link and it worked fine. Not sure if this is the same as others are getting.

This is worth a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhj58mGyGQ0 Guy Martin is a top bloke. Well known for his TT exploits.

Internet sleuthing will probably be a little easier on a new build!! Regards, Karl

Re: New Guy Just up the road from me Ron! I am in SF.

Let me know how you get on Neville, I would love to know if it helps others as much as it helped mine.

I would agree with Bob that the sides could be a little longer though!

I also got mine from California Car Covers a couple of years ago, very happy. Their customer service is also excellent. I originally got it without door pockets. Once I figured out the mirrors I was going to fit I called them up to get the door pockets and they had it in the system to ship...

And the front LEDs fit within the space available without any changes to the cover in the wheel well. I am very happy with the outcome, especially given how little work it took!

They plugged straight in with no resistors. I did go with the same bulb for the break light and rear light. Although the existing brake light is as big as the indicator and bigger than the rear light. My thinking was that the two red LEDs will essentially combine to give more light when...

OK, I have also switched the rear bulbs to LEDs. Again, a big improvement! Here are the bulbs I bought off of Amazon: JDM ASTAR Super Bright 78-EX Chipsets 1156 1141 1073 7506 LED Bulbs with Projector,Brilliant Red https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01J2KKMHE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_63cFybHNKMY6M JDM...

OK, some pictures (before, after and one of each bulb) and a couple of links: Converter to accept modern bulbs: 2 x H4 BULB ADAPTERS CLASSIC VINTAGE CITROEN 2CV OPEL FIAT H5 to H4 P45T P43T R2 | eBay LED headlight bulbs: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01B2XPK3K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_9y-BybP3XNFSG

This is a timely posting!! I just switched to LED lights in my CAV. They managed to fit inside the existing inside lining and plugged straight into the current wiring. The only thing extra I needed was some little plastic conversion adapter rings to convert from P45T to P43T fittings (that took...

Hi Gary, 215s on the front and 295s on the back of my CAV. Very happy with them. Karl

Glad to help! My knowledge on the cars is not a patch on many many others here! I am glad that there is an area that I am able to add value!
