    CAV GT fuel gauge not working

    When left fuel tank is selected, the left fuel pump works but the fuel gauge shows zero, when I know the tank is almost full. However when the right side tank is selected the Gauge works fine. Any ideas? Should I look at the sender?.

    tyre mixing

    I've got Avon CR66ZZ on my CAV at present and the fronts need replacement. I have some part worn Yoko A032r (225/60/15), can I try these at the front.

    holley carb tuning

    I have just replaced holley 750 vacuum secondaries with 650 DP on my CAV GT40. I want to tune the carb using wiideband 02 sensor but do not want to drill a hole and weld on a bung to one of the headers. Is there a o2 sensing probe which can be pushed up the tailpipe. The muffler in my car is the...

    track day tires

    I am running Avon cr6zz on my CAV. 275/55/15 rears and 225/60/15 fronts. After having done a few track days very little tread is remaining and I do not really want to spend another £900 on a new set. I think part of the problem is that the rubber compound is too soft giving rise to very good dry...

    manifold vacuum and brakes

    I have always found that I have to press the brake pedal fairly hard on my CAV GT (#51). This is especially true on track days and the right leg gets a little tired. I today hooked up a vacuum gauge on to my holley 750 vac secondaries and found the reading to be 12mm Hg. Is this too low to...

    clutch release travel

    I have a 9.5" single organic plate AP racing clutch in my GT40. What is the throw out bearing travel required to fully release the clutch?. It seems that in my setup the t/0 bearing needs to travel quite a bit in the region of 12mm to 15mm. I have heard that overstroking the clutch can reduce...

    bellhousing alignment

    My CAV GT40 has been suffering with difficult gearchanges and clutch disengagement problems for a while especially when driven hard. Recently I decided to pull the Renault 21T transaxle out of the car and check the one piece bellhousing for concentricity and was horrified to discover that it was...

    spring rates

    Is anyone running stiffer springs on their CAV?. I have factory standard springs in my pre 100 series car which I believe are 300lb. I think these are OK for road use but too soft for serious track work.

    rear wheel play

    The rear left assembly on my CAV (No 51) has significant play ever since I bought the car new. Its driveable and I have done 7000 miles including 5 trackdays.
