There's something about a slab side Cobra that's so much more elegant than the later versions. BEAUTIFUL!!

Took the switch off - I can't tell if these are some type of female connector or just missing the tangs....might have to open it up.....?

So mine might not be missing spades, but not have them at all? How does it connect to the wiring? REALLY should have thought of this before I put the box in lmao....

Yeah thanks for that - I wasn't sure if it was going to be allowable so thankyou for creating space. I just thought I'd pop up my head as I genuinely missed this forum, but the Corty is my only Rover....ish..... car I have since selling the P6B. Still appreciate the advice, too!

Cheers mate. Yep it's a block off plate I made. I'm using a Davies Craig 150 electric water pump. I had hoped to fit a rad from another make model (trying to limit having custom bits made, and also trying to cut as little as possible out of the car) but there was just no room. I've had to cut a...

Cheers mate - Being sociable is something I need to work on. Both online and IRL lol

Howdy! I've got a BW66 mated to a 3.5. I'm going to run a cooler (no cooler in the rad). Are flexible lines ok or should I make hard-lines? If hard-lines what material is best? If hard-lines what fitting is used to the box - at the moment there's just barb fittings with a hose joining the two...

Hey gang, Long time no see. Thought I'd just post an update as it's finally starting to look like a car. Slow progress is still progress. The engine is a 1985 3.5 that I've had running on a test stand after a 15 year hibernation. Car is originally a 3spd column auto, so I have a BW 66 in there...

Thanks mate :)

Sorry I didn't reply earlier. I've got a fresh Toyota axle in there, so I'm not keen on changing the rear end.

Cheers - no prices unfortunately (means expensive!) and I can't see myself tripping across one at the next swap meet...

Hi guru's - quick question this time. With the RV8 and BW65 auto is there any spacing required between the flexplate and converter? I had always assumed they were directly bolted to each other. No diagrams on the interwebs indicate spacers, but just checking before I do something expensive...

Cheers guys - It's a Toyota LN25 axl though.

It's only money, right? :LOL:

After the work and $$ I've spent on the rear axle it's staying lol. Not a huge deal - car is a cruiser but at 3.58 it'll be a NOISY cruiser!

Howdy, Just curious if there ever was/is an overdrive option for the v8 BW like the MG's had? I'm running 3.58 rear and that's the tallest ratio I can get for my diff.

Ok thanks. Time to sort through the parts bin!

Are all the rotors and caps interchangeable between points and electronic dizzies, or are there small differences to watch out for?

3500 to BW66.

Hi gurus, Is there a specific torque settings for the 4 bolts between bellhousing and case? Locktite or not? Cheers!

Hi gurus, I have a v8 points distributor I'd like to use but I'm not confident it's ok. What should I check and how to see if it's serviceable?

Short story long, I'm putting a 3.5 into my Mk2 Cortina. I've been keeping an eye out for a cheap 4.6 (for later, the 3.5 has to go in for the car to be certified as I'm only 'supposed' to go to 3.7L max capacity) and I managed to get one at price I couldn't resist. Before I got assurances from...

Thanks legends!

Hi groovers, What size/thread/strength bolt do I need to bolt the torque converter to the flexplate? Cheers, Rob.

is that on the outside of the box, black in colour? If so, that's the only difference between the two boxes I have.
