I don't about all these roadster people putting non-roadster parts into their cars. Isn't there a rule against this kind of thing? Bill Kenyon SRL311 KA
Healy 3000's have inline 6 cylinder, iron head and block, 3000 cc's, 4 spd with electric overdrive. Lots of torque, tranny's somewhat vulnerable. Austin Healy Sprite, up to 1275 cc's, iron head and b
Using a test light, begin at the brake light switch and check for power. If there isn't any at either wire, go back to the fuse box and check for power. If there is power at the switch, push the peda

Have the Pertronix kit in my roadster but I'm using a L16 distributor. It seemed to remove those intermittent little misfires. As long as they make one to fit a roadster distributor I think you'd lik
Hey Patrick, not all engines have zero oil pressure at idle, and Pennzoil and Quaker State are not designed to fail. Most Datsuns will read low at idle and might even read zero but most normal engine
Hey list, Pistons in smaller rear wheel cylinders will move further than larger cylinders with the same amount of pedal depression. Think about it! Bill Kenyon SRL311 KA
