Good people with a lot of experience

We have found UPS to be the most reliable with customs - they have customs based in their building I believe in Louisville.
We just had a 27 day physical hold and examination at DHL customs and we...

Picture it - fresh restored 333SP ferrari arrives in shipping container. Boot prints over the rear wing and down to the nose where they left a DHS Customs sticker. Zero accountability for any...

Having done Hewland boxes for many years - I'd second Scottys recommendation about Hewland parts.

We had a monitor failure on or GT3 458 Ferrari and bought a Pyle 7" with camera PLCM7700 as an emergency replacement on Amazon.Honestly the $2000+ 458 unit is a little better definition but the Pyle...

These are original NOS Made in Germany two post.

As Scotty chimed in - not economical

Two observations before the peanut gallery chimes in:
Why
Dont.
Each configuration has an intrinsic value that rises it seems year by year and it would be a serious cost to change either way....

Try BAT inc in Florida - always been great on engine parts for 1600/2000

What tires are you running

One of our standard checks before a car leaves the shop is to check clutch throw with someone in it pushing the clutch while someone pushes the car or turns the rear wheels. Once it disengages we...

If I remember correctly the Mk5 takes Mk5 gears.but they can go in later boxes too. Supervees used them I think. The mark 6's that I have seen were mk8/9 gears and also a couple that were 6 speed...

I have this floor mount CNC Brake pedal assy for dual master cyls with balance bar that will take all the standard Girling/AP/ Wilwood master cyls with 5/16 threaded pushrods. Looks in great - hardly...

We took both of the Mk3 Rileys belonging to Al Petkus - the #20 99 Daytona winning car he drove himself, His good friend Dan Harrison drove the ex Scott Schubot car.

The Lynx was a lovely surprise at the Classic 24. - Beautifully done
We had the privilege of showing two of the Riley Mk 3s in the picture, a Riley track day prototype and the ex Dorsey Raybestos...

Its an electronic tach that raceparts sold in the late 80's early 90's (not sure past that). They were mostly sold to manufacturers - March used them in indy cars. I have a couple upstairs - just a...

You have other wheel nuts as a pattern - get some made before you re-engineer the car. Looks like an external thread on the nut so its relatively easy to make and one should have a spare for the day...

I owned an 11 and 18BW - never seen a centerlock set up in that era (up to 78).
Phil

Ist test of a Van Diemen in Jan 78 resulted in broken studs as the tires had too much grip (3/8 x 24 and yes we torqued them properly - at least on the replacements and they still broke). Crossle had...

As an FYI we still make the aluminum wing main planes for sale

The gearbox is based on TPT gears and CWP - not an FT/FG part in it other than small hardware.

One of my customers broke his exhaust header pipe at the Mitty this weekend - we can fab a new one but wonder if any one has an exhaust sstem for a Royale (any year- we just have to modify the...

There is no way to measure it in the box that I am aware of - just recommended measured qty back in every time the rear cover assy was off. There are a couple of places to get most of it out without...

Not unusual if the level is too high for a variety of reasons - not always a lean out thing

I was the original importer for the Robin Smith era of Chevron 81-83 for B52 - B63 as Transatlantic Racing and merged with essex racing. The deal fell apart shortly thereafter due to supply...

We have come across this with a number of UK companies on small orders - too much red tape I suppose with the VAT(tax) man.
If you do ship to a UK address its a fairly high VAT tax to be paid as...

"As an active BOD member said to me a long while ago....." the only reason F1000 is a class is so that ___________ wouldn't sue us"

As an active Board member at that time thats not true - it was...

Louis Rettenmeier's old RT5 I think - pretty sure it won the Runoffs at least twice in the 80's. Sure could pedal that thing
As many RT5 s that Ben Beasley converted to SR he would be my first call...

Most of the vented brake conversions we did back in the day just added weight and really didnt help - the new generation of pads took care of a lot of the heat/fade issues. The 4 piston metro...

I would echo what Greg said - if they have pressure use them. We have a set on a vintage (?) Royale S2 that work fine as long as you stay close to original spring rates

Anyone know the whereabouts of ex British F3 driver from the early 70's Russell Wood - won some races in a 723 and 733 march.
Was a big mate of Danny Sullivan. Last heard of in California we...

We have run these engines for a customer in both a March F2 and a Gp6 Sports Car for the last few years. Still have the Sports Car but the F2 went back to the UK.
We use Chuck Cornelison at VDS...

Chalkie decamped to the UK years ago although i spoke to him early last year (approx) about a restoration he was doing.

I have a pair of front flaps but having a mental block on the wings that go...

I think I still have the setup book for the March the last year it ran.I can look in a couple of weeks
Bob that seems like a long time ago - 1992 to be exact.
Hope you are doing well.

From memory I thought the 204 had 4" PCD wheel bolt pattern which would imply a Ford product. Dont remember Lola going the British Leyland route like most of the UK guys.
Could be wrong - often...

Almost all Specialised Mouldings colours were Ryland pigment - I know Lola and Tiga used them. (now Llewellyn Ryland)

Koni bump rubbers for the 3012 - bought some recently for a Riley and Scott project. Truechoivce Koni sells them in two lengths I think. Not the later Koni stuff with grooves in them and more yellow...

I doubt that 64 cars would be a critical mass to make the class viable - usually it takes 100+ active cars nationwide.
Probably better off trying to work with regions where they are concentrated to...

We saw this in the early days of Radical in the SE with some Prosport cars that had been used as trackday cars. I never saw an exception given but at least one slipped through as the tech inspector...

I echo what Stan said - a little drag on either cable and the shift pawls hesitate to reset and you get a mis-shift.

First you have to understand that SCCA Pro is a separate company and has no bearing on the running of Club Racing whatsoever. It has derived its income in recent years as a service provider for...

While the subject of the necessity of another Formula car class could fill a fairly long thread I'll make one point - the FIA and ACCUS wanted it to happen in the USA and if it hadn't been through...

This a really important upgrade to the hoop - its a bit of a bandaid to fix an issue with the original welding but the only practical one Star could come up with back then. Be sure your welder...

I will try to pass on some of the prep tricks/fettling.
One that comes to mind was a rear sway bar cable that was split at the gear box mid cable so that it made for a quicker gearbox or engine...

As the current owner of the two Level Five BMW Daytona Prototypes (for sale by the way) I can testify to the detail/no expense spared philosophy that Level Five had. Just all the detail prep that...
