Yes, we're interested, and we all love piccies

Forgot on Thursday, :confused: This is what I have here, not sure what car it's from, but definitely a 4 cylinder one.

I have a plasma cutter, bought it cheap at a show last year but I can't use it when the factory is running. If I want to sneak off and have a play for an hour when at work, I can use the nibbler but not the plasma, or the welder or angle grinder either. Things that create sparks are strictly...

Thanks all I bought one a while ago for the Cresta, but as we're going a different route with that now, I may let Sparky have it.

Nearly there with the strip down now. There are still the front and rear screens, who on earth was bonding them in during the 60's ? - thank you Vauxhall. There's the odd earth wire here and there still connected, and some spring clips to hold screws in, but that's it. Under the dash, O/S...

Anyone know what the actual gear ratios are on the ZF4HP boxes?

Ok, it's redlined at 5,200. I have a tacho for the 4 cylinder car at work, but I'm not there until Thursday. I'll send you a pic.

V8 tachos redline at 5,200

Jag rear install eh? Look forward to that. Are you using the whole thing, just the diff, or somewhere in between?

I think the Autos are different as the transmission tunnel is a lot wider. I've never seen them for sale though.

Happy Christmas to all those Rovers out there, and their owners of course :) :)

I was fitting an EDIS system as part of the Megasquirt fuel injection.

"G'day Quattro, where did you get your badge?." I took my original badges to a local vinyl lettering guy, who sign wrote our vans, and asked if he could duplicate them with the same font, size etc but with 4000S instead of 3500S. I then rubbed the old ones down, painted them with a silver...

Check the connections on that diode

The fan won't operate with the air intake closed, unless something is broken, or been re-wired.

Very good H, but to be honest, I am a little concerned that it may in fact be contributing to the structural integrity of the vehicle. It may be ok for the 120bph of the 3.3L, but as I'm going to put a 400bhp V8 in there, removing it and putting any missing steel back maybe a good idea. Should...

All of the air comes from outside, through that large meshed inlet on the top. My heater is very good although to be honest, he doesn't go out in the cold anymore so difficult to say. I don't know of any plastic inserts where the water hoses are connected?

Two months gone by, nasty gout flare up followed by Achilles tendonitis and a couple of other things, just back on my feet and back at it :) I have managed to get the rear axle out with the help of my son, then onto other stuff. My main concern now though is the amount of builders foam in the...

The Vitesse wheels are 15" and the correct offset, if that's any help.

Mine had a noise so I glued the bearing on and it did make quite a big difference. It got louder :mad:

I replaced my back plates and found one small difference. The fixing for the brake disc back plate on my car consisted of a threaded hole into the upright and a 7/16" bolt which went through the back plate, into the upright. The new one I got had a captive nut on the back plate and should have...

You can put pictures and the date of the auction on here (which you have done). Anyone interested can contact you to log into the auction themselves. We will not be hosting anything here. Richard

Apart from a few engine bits, there's nothing on a land Rover that can be used. You're also looking at engine designed to pull a huge 4 x 4 around so would be built more for torque than bhp.

I got mine from Rotherham refinishing. Most car paint places would be able to make you some up.
