Recommendations for replacement bulkhead parts
Les Brock replied to Junglie's topic in Defender Forum (1983 - 2016)
Maer are good quality, but be prepared to wait - two months and counting so far for some small parts to arrive -
Took a wander and as above seemed a lot of tat Almost like most of the decent bits had been stuck on Eblag and this was what was left along with all other bits to large to post Also seemed like there was more vintage stuff than Land Rover bits TBH Perhaps I just could'nt see the wood for the trees, but came back with very little which is unusual to say the least.

Usually blob of solder if your lucky and covered with black nasty. Trouble is if you do it yourself and they might not sign it off, but I'd want to be know how they've tapping in case of a fault and your stuck Normally 3 circuits IIRC

Sad news indeed, many a good weekend was had there going back a fair few years I have to be honest. J33P's one were superb. Fond memories indeed Trouble is back then we generally used to drive to and from (well a lot of us did) 35's were just in, whereas now bigger and (better) Buggy's combined speed events have I would imagine lead to much more visible damage Hopefully it will open up to lightly modded in the future with limited tyre size once its recovered

My Old girl would pull 70 no problem at all with a fair bit more to spare 1.4 Transfer box on 255/85 Alisport large intercooler, tweeked pump just diaphram and turned standard pin - wastegate tweeked a tad tighter and boost referance taken direct from intake manifold to cover any losses in pipework Fed with 3 inch pipework 3.5 Diffs Ashcrofts Kick down adjusted correctly ? Are you running out of fuel ? - poor lift pump, blocked, pick up maybe, blocked air filter

Tdi big intercooler performance differences?
Les Brock replied to Chicken Drumstick's topic in Defender Forum (1983 - 2016)
Mine will be coming out at some time -
I used the same, there are loads on You Tube on how to strip down the AC compressor, block a internal port and then grease the rear of the pump and re assemble, so you dont need to run an oiler and no oil get into your airline

Used to love flicking through a LR mag before going to work, never got to grips with electronic mags, just not the same. Sad to see aother one down the pan (even tho as above they screwed us over)

RIP Les (The good looking one) A true gentleman, who would go out of his way to help anyone and a stickler for the tech Forum, and whose write ups have helped so many and will indeed continue to be part of his legacy here for years to come. Our condolences to his family and friends.
