    UN1 Improvements

    Thanks Guys The Hall effect looks easy enough. Having looked at pictures of the 4 spider housings I think i will machine up a steel toothed wheel to replace the plastic worm gear on the carrier and use a Hall Effect sensor to work off that. It should be relatively easy to achieve as I had...

    Can I repair this?

    Good to see you will get this sorted It also brings up the discussion as to whether drilling the block is better or worse than modifying the head to match the block. Personally I prefer drilling the head to match the block and it saves this problem. I'd be keen to hear other peoples point...

    Steering rack options

    John A possible ???? candidate in Australia is the Ford Territory AWD rack. It is however a power steering rack. Unlike the 2WD Territory it is in front of the wheels as per GT40 You will need to check length. KB

    Adjustable pedal box mounting

    Lloyd Thanks for your input The attached pictures are from Jason Ferraro's build. I like the concept but would like to develop it further so rather than removing bolts to shift the pedal box assembly, maybe some other mechanism could be used to shift and lock the pedal assembly. In...

    Adjustable pedal box mounting

    Thanks Graham That's what I had in mind I think it need to have both a servo of some kind to move it back and forward plus some means of locking it in place once it has moved. A lock mechanism would also be desirable from both certification and peace of mind aspects. This needs...

    Adjustable pedal box mounting

    Rene Thanks but what I was looking to do was move the whole pedal box approximately 100 mm closer to the driver in various amounts The GT40 cockpit is not very big and moving the driver closer to the front 100 mm doesn't look like a good option. I'd prefer to have the seat position...

    Ford Quitting V8 Supercars 2015

    I am intrigued by this announcement. At the same time Ford made this statement we have Marcos Ambrose appearing in a Falcon sponsored by Penske who will certainly be pouring money in for him to win. I wonder where that money is coming from ???? Maybe with Ford closing their manufacturing, it...
