  1. That sound good, but then there is the cam, whatis the opinion re that? re the inlet manifold I have read that 265 is possible but then you are on the limit so the 250 should be okay Ole
  2. Hello Friends. As per title and topic tag, is it possible to obtain 250bhp or there about on a diy basis and what is neccesary to do? I am my self thinking of a mildly ported head, a cam total balance and MS or something with same tuning possibilities. Ole
  3. Hi Soren We use a 6mm 10.9 bolt and only at one side, the shaft is 20mm, it has only sheared when the hook got jamed in the fairled, wich is fine for us it protects the gear Ole
  4. One should imagine so but it was only two persons going from Exeter to Stanstead and it was for both of them of course.
  5. Thanx Eightpot, they decided to hire a private taxi and that was only 60£ more than the Train, that was 177£ They are now safe in stanstead. Thanx again Kind regards Ole.

  7. I'd say as the others, paint white, run half cool white and daylight tubes, clean them once a year, we have on 40m2 9 double 5' Armatures plus double ones right over the workbench, you have to read on the tubes what light the give, if you know some one who works at a hospital, then they might be able to supply you with the onec they use, as they have a very good colour as I remember they are 98% close to give the right colour. Or you can nick them, at one off your frekvent visits there.....ops Hat and coat, I am gone.....:-D
  8. Hi Folks. Junior have removed the spades from the fuelsender unit in order to fit a new tank but has forgotten to write dawn what goes where there are 3 individual wires, black, gren/black and one more wich does not look OE, so the queston is what goes where? Cheers Ole
  9. Hi Dan I am on to, BIG SMILEY, I have for the last week googled a lot on the OM606, strange isnt it...... I do not know of any other way to get that much power at that price.. I will go for a ZF gearbox from an Iveco they can cope with the NM's and if one chose the right one you will have a granny first and couple it to a LT230 in some way, the beaty about the ZF's in the serie that I am looking at is that they are cable operated so one can get the gear lever right where you want it. Ole.
  10. Hi Dan I can see you have a new flange cut, have you got the file or did you buy it finished, in our new race truck we are using the 4jb1 and have looked into another turbo as one of the first up-grades after the usual IC, pump tweek and so. By the way have you got any 4jb1 on hand for sale? Kind regards Ole.
  11. Hi. He is just turning realistic, he has realized that in the future he will also have to make Squirt work on diesels :-D Kind regards Ole
  12. Hello Allow me to highjack this tread, I am after the same for disco 2 in order to convert RRC axels to disco 2 arms and I need it for both front and rear. Redards Ole.
  13. Hello Mr Slow Here in Denmark it is only recommended to use winter tires not a requirement but if you do it must be on 4 wheels and regardless to tyre there must be at least 1,6mm tread Re Lpg. there is hardly any stations if any at all. Have a nice trip Kind regards Ole.
  14. Hi Dirtyninety I don't no, we have approx 100 pieces in the company a supcontractor did a mistake they are as far as I remeber 100x115x70mm white If it is only one or two i think it's a beer or two at the Donnington show Ole
  15. Hi Dan I know about the bushes and the fact that they fit in a rather different way it is more to the fact how much the lenght diff is and 4" is enough to make me tinker in order to get bettter handling, the new build being a pure speed thingy Ole
  16. Hi Dan We have been using POM for 4 years ( and we are on the third one now)I have made it so that we can turn it round and wear it on the opposit side ours is just a square block, 70mm thick, with a 20mm hole and then a big radius trumpet, we got the winch in the rear And yes wire cabel cuts as if that was the intention Kind regards Ole PS I think POM is polyoxymethylen isn't it ?
  17. Hi I have spent most off the afternoon googleing around trying to find out the difference length vise on the above two, but to no avail, hope some one here can help me out Kind regards Ole
  18. Hi I am going to Lemans and have a diff at HFH that I would like to get relayed to Lemans. Kind regards Ole
  19. I am going there on Sunday together with Greenstream then we are traveling out to Mr Lewis and further down to Mr Whitbread returning to Stanstead airport via Dorset. Ole
  20. I have to correct myself it is not 1:6 but 1:9 sorry Ole
  21. Howdy. Not all mech winches have that, our König winch with worm 1:6 ratio can be pulled out by hand if pto is not engaged or main box is in neutral, but I guess that 1:36 wich is more normal will have sifficient brake power. Now if you look at the Viking winch Soren at his friends have just finished there ar not brake power at all in neutral, but I can imagine they are already working on that. Ole.
  22. HI We run one in The Kitten, it is a 88" LWT weighing 1550kg combat ready (6 point roll-cage 4 waffleboards and much more), gearbox is One Ton so pretty low geared. In that car it is a fine match and we are within regs, but fuel ecnomy is as V8, max speed is 55mph due to the low gear, it is a nice old school engine easy to fix and so,BUT in anyting but a 88" I would not recommend it, it is though a very fine upgrade in a 88". Thats just my 5´p Regards Ole
  23. Hi John There are two classes, Adventure and Extreme. What you have read on winches is for Adventure class, in Extreme class most cars have a F****** fast rear mount mech winch and a smaller front mount electric ie Warn XP or similar for the technical stuff off course some also have a centermount winch elctric winch. And yes there is no regs well almost no regs only a few on safety and so, here in denmark we have a meny teams that did go there years back. Magam used to be a very very good event I do not know about it these days. Ole
