Hi Brian Try contacting Kenlowe fans in the UK (www.kenlowe.com). They can supply any sort of radiator fan in both size and power you could want. I have used them lots of times for replacement fans, most recently for my TVR Griffith and Ferrari 246. The quality is great and they are more than...

If anyone is looking for a GT40 project a rover engined Mk 3 KVA is on Ebay UK. Item number is 4646942224. Regards Simon

Thanks Phil I am going to install the foam on Saturday and will take care around the position of the sender unit. Hopefully it should not be a problem. I am pleased I have asked this question and got some advice. If I had left the tank with nothing inside I would have been worried every time...

I just phoned ATL and spoke to their technical department. They have said the Yellow coloured baffle foam produced is suitable for all petrol applications, including unleaded. That being said, I did not gain any real in depth details from them, mainly just a confirmation it would be ok. So...

Thanks for all the replies guys, as usual my questions have been anwered. I have phoned ATL and they are able to supply what I require. I can only assume Howard that the foam ATL supply can be used with unleaded. I will call them again today just to make sure. From the information I have been...

Hi Paul Thanks for the quick reply, I will give ATL a call and see what they can supply. I was a bit worried if this can be done after the event when a tank has already been made. I assumed that normally this material would be put in position when the fuel tank construction is done. Hopefully...

Hi All Sorry for what may be a lame question but I need some advice regarding the fuel tank on my KVA. I am nearing the end of my build and have recently taken off the fuel tank to check a problem. The tank was filled with a wire mesh type material that had small pieces coming off blocking...

Hi Ron I have now installed a TVR 4.5 chimera engine in my KVA and purchased all the parts from Bellhill garage in the uk. (www.bellhillgarage.co.uk) 01373 834252. They have most bits such as ecu's etc etc. They are all very helpful guys and may have some parts you want. I hope this helps...

Ian, I have sent you an E-Mail with a potential exhaust for the Rover lump. I too need one for the TVR 4.5 engine I have installed. Regards Simon

Hi Lisa The S4 Esprit's are great cars and do see to be holding their value quite well. I have never owned a Stevens shaped Esprit, all my previous ones have been the earlier Guigaro shape. I love both but had always had a soft spot for the S1 (probably came from watching too much james bond as...

Hi Lisa Welcome to the forum!. If you are going for a GT40 rep you have found the best site to get information. I am sure any details you need will be found here. The GT40 enthusiasts club is also a good place to start. I have owned three Lotus Esprit's and still own a gleaming white S1 esprit...

Hi Sandy I am going to send off to Tony some copies of my "S" badge and the "Horse shoes" later on today. Hopefully he will be able to give me a price on those and I will ask how much the set would be. To including the following, 2 x Firestone, 2 x Ferodo, 2 x Autolite, 2 x Gulf (sides), 2 x...

Hi Sandy I have no problem sending Tony a copy of my "S" and "Horse Shoe" decals for him to replcate. It would make sense as he can supply all the other graphics required. As building a Gulf replica seems to be a popular option for GT40 builders it would most handy to be able to get the...

Hi Sandy That is indeed the firm that had produced most of my stickers. The chap who runs the company is called Anthony Collins and is very helpfull. From the discussions I have had with him he could produce to a custom specification if required as he had done for me. I told I was building a...

Thanks for all the replies guys. After doing some research it looks like Brian is quite correct, the DVLA must be informed by returning the log book with the change details. I have also been asked to provide proof of purchase for the new engine, no problem. I perhaps should have looked into...

I did not know if this is the right section to ask my question but here goes anyway. I am finishing off my KVA and one of the changes made included the removal of the 3.5 L Rover v8 engine and the installation of a 4.5 L Rover v8 (1998 engine if that makes a difference!). Could anyone advise...

Hi Gerard I must say that is spooky. If I were to take a picture of the Horse Shoes and S badges I have done, they are identical to the ones in your pictures (particularly the horseshoes!). I looks to me like you have worked off the same sample pictures I did. I should hopefully have my car...

Oh I forgot to say, He can also do custom made stickers if required (I got my Ferodo and Firestone badges from him aswell). Do you already have the Horse Shoes for the back and the side S badges?. These are a real pain to get right because it is hard to find close up pictures of the original...

Hi Gerard I am also building a replica of 1968 chassis #1075 (good choice, but I am bound to say that!). I already have all of the stickers required to complete mine and the two Autolite ones you need I got from Ebay UK. The chap I purchased them from sell loads of period stickers and would be...

Thanks for the link Murray, a very helpful site. They seem to have a lot of parts that will assist getting over this tank pipework issue. Brett, any ideas how much range Roy gets out of his single fuel tank?. What has prompted me to install and additional one (apart from the fact the cars on...
