As above, not sure on the 400 Hz part - mine go from 0 to 50. Also offer a lot of protection to the motor as it trips out before frying the motor. Currently run 1 on the lathe and 2 on the mill. G

2 photo's in a row on here with the chuck key in the chuck ! tut tut tut.... Nice but now buy a VFD for it G

Toyota engineers tested their door seals by putting a cat in the car on a Friday. If it suffocated over the weekend, the seal was OK. Landrover engineers used this, but changed the success criteria to whether the cat was still in the car or not!

A Toyota badge ?

Ive had a gas strut in my series bonnet for years now, so much easier G

Just be careful using the advance / retard settings, from memory they're double (or is it half ?) due to the megasquirt spark system. G

Which discs are used ? LR front or rear ? Thanks G

The snap on ones are really nice, but not cheap Hope you're well G

And to top it all off, if you really really wanted to upgrade the rear. Put on a set of front 4 pot calipers. But they will lock up unless you drive around all the time in difflock. Have you got the bigger 4 pots on the front ? Don't worry about the solid rear discs. And ditto all the comments about vented fronts. G

Now i'm confused. (since the PM's lol) I thought the running engine was using a clocked wheel, didn't realise you'd got it running by swapping leads - if thats the case, then we know it works, you need to check & double check the non runner Have you got (or access to) an oscilloscope to check if the VR is working ? Or are you seeing RPM when cranking ? As said above, draw on some timing marks (the 4.6's don't have like the earlier models, but can be drawn with white pen) and see if / when it's sparking. G

Sorry, i'd just been talking to someone about using the gems crank position sensor - hence my reply about using the 4.0 bits

The mrs was looking at an evoque, maybe have to wait Wonder if it'll be more reliable ??? Probably haha ! G

Use the bits from a p38 4.0 and it'll all fit G

Glad you like it I really like the Ashcroft locker ?

I ran a crowder cam that gave more bottom end. Have a search through my posts for a model #. I now run a Kent in my p38's 4.6 G

Let someone else climb under it !

Looks interesting. How much machining on the hub - I'm guessing the back part to bolt on a disc ? In a side note, does anybody know what discs the Zeus kit used ? They appear to fit over the hub. G

Sorry, I can't seem to see what make of conversion you've gone for ? Where did you order from and what discs came with? Cheers Gordon

Just curious, for those of us that have never used a cnc machine before. How hard is it to learn something like this Mach 3 ? Is the freebie version ok for basic cutting ? G

Correct. Bendtech has a few options which are listed on their site. I've got the sheet metal add on for mine which I use a bit. It'll pay for itself in not too long. And give you the ability to bend complicated parts which aren't easy without it! G

Fiddle brakes will help your turning

Am i understanding this correct : You want an air con pump for air con as well as a second air con pump for OBA ? For the time that the OBA compressors run you'll be find running it and a second alternator off a single V belt. FWIW, i much prefer the air con pumps over the 12v compressors. I have this setup in my truck, but have a 12v compressor wired / plumbed in as backup due to the importance of OBA. G

We used to burn all the swarf machined from magnesium.... Always impressive ?? G

Very nice. Why not use angle iron on the ends to give it some rigidity ? G
