Since I put my tuned 1815cc engine in I have had to remove it once, suspecting I had incorrectly put back the diaphragm clutch it later turned out that the garage had used the wrong clutch release bearing on the conversion.

Well it looks like it’s going to be coming out again, as on my way home on Sunday night the clutch pedal started to vibrate like a road drill.

I’m starting to wish I had perfected some sort of engine loading mechanism you can find on American tanks.

…either that or using wing nuts on the bell housing.

Still at least this gives me an opportunity to send back the carb that doesn’t work properly.

Starting to feel like I’ve had enough of this…

The miracle of vapour blasting.


















They had been left out in the rain for a long time so the chrome on the filler cap had been completely ruined – so that was zinc sprayed and hi temp painted. More fortunately the firm that made them is still trading – so I may replace at a later date… - Doesn’t look too bad in black.
