Hi Sam, This is probably not providing any help, but maybe some moral support. I also have an MDA (MDA only) bodywork. I can only confirm that the front clip is a bit off. If you manage to achieve a descent fit on one side, the other side will be off by about 20 mm. I would say that the piece...

Hi Mark, This might be what you are looking for. The non-mounted caliper is mine and that one is off a Ferrari 360. I'm quite sure this is what MDA used for their factory builds... Cheers, Mattias

Hi Paul, Like Andrew I picked the MSD-8579. I can confirm that it fits the Eightstack intake manifold. Also like Andrew I haven't run anything yet. My intention is to have a crank trigger for timing and use the 8579 as a "cam position" sensor. Regards, Mattias

I called Vintagewheels yesterday. It seems as if their response to me got lost in the spam filter. Anyway, I got superb support on the phone and the solution will be new unthreaded spinners that I can machine locally. /Mattias

Thank you Chris, My numbers are slightly off then. I tried to Contact Wintage Wheels but with no sucess so far. I also noticed that Trigo Wheels sell an undrilled forged spinner, maybe that is the route I have to take... /Mattias

Thank you for the input. The pitch is correct. I haven't been able to check the thread form but since they (male/femal threads) barely grab on to each other I assume the form cannot be the main issue. It would be interesting to hear what dimensions others have on their hubs/spinners. /Mattias

Hi, I have some fitting issues with my wheel spinners and I would highly appreciate any input from you guys. I bought a set of Tri-Wing spinners from Vintage wheels. When I mounted them I noticed that the threads on the hubs don’t match the threads on the spinners very well. The threads on...

Hi Per, Good luck wit your search. I live on the other side of the bridge and I'm building an MDA MkI on a series II chassis. Feel free to PM me... Cheers, Mattias

Hi Bill, I can not help you with your harness issue, but I'm also building an MDA so we might have some use of each other in the future... Version 4.91 is the same as I have. Regards, Mattias

Hi Chris, I have what might become an MDA Mk I, (series II chassis). Good to see one more of these cars on the forum. Regards, Mattias

Phil, Ron, Randy and Mike, Thanks a lot for all your help. This forum is truly excellent. Despite your “warnings” Mike I think I have gained enough confidence to make an attempt at performing this operation. I have reasonably good experience from working with ZF’s (non-transaxle) and rear...

-Thank you Phil. This was precisely what I was looking for, superb firsthand information from someone who has performed this himself and obviously succeeded. Regarding the puller, I remember seeing a device consisting of two “half-circles” that clamps around the bearing when being bolted to a...

Hi, I have tried to gather information about the procedure for inverting the ZF (from Pantera to GT40 orientation). After spending quite some time on various forums, I still think I lack a conclusive answer. Sometimes this 180 deg. flip seems to require the act of a wizard, whereas others...

-Well Rune, I would say that the question, “How close are GOX to deliver the kits to the 20 chosen ones?” still remains unanswered. The fact that GOX is putting up a new building only indicates that the focus temporarily has moved away from making cars. I certainly don’t wish to start a flame...

Regarding the title of this thread, “GOX mono kit”, does such creature exist at all? According to my understanding this project has been going on for years, but all we have actually been shown (except for the demonstrator chassis) are a few pieces of galvanized steel spot-welded together by...

-Agree, but as for any rules there are exceptions... Here a Swedish GOX 40. Regards, Mattias

Hi Simon, Thanks for the tip regarding door locks. Do you know where to find a suitable striker plate? Door handles can be found here: MUSTALGIA.COM GT40:Ford GT40 door handles

I must have missed something… Wouldn’t the most obvious choice be an Alfa Romeo transaxle? These are used in 75/90/GTV. Such gearbox is used in the replica below.
