Tirerack.com can get them. You'll have to call in the order, though; it's not in the online database. Part numbers are DP2107 or DP2240(v8 pads) -M. __________________________________________________

Well, my first two thoughts on the topic of LBCs in literature: James Joyce, Dubliners. There's a chapter called "After the Race", describing the aftermath of a road race held in Dublin -- I think th

The only shame I feel is the taint of sharing air with cretins like you. There's this fabulous document called the bill of rights which guarantees, among other things, equal protection under the law.

I'm replacing the dash in my 1970 B (The car is back from the swindling body shop, and almost looks decent; another story entirely). I have the dash out of the car, all instruments and switches out.

Back in high school, I helped rig some of these up on a friend's car. We drilled small holes in the side marker lights and reverse lights, epoxied aluminum tubing in place, and rigged up a 1-gallon t

In my experience, you can do it without lifting the engine at all. You will need a 1/4 inch ratchet, a u/j, a short extension bar, and a bunch of patience. But it can be done. Matt __________________

I'm looking for a couple of sheet-metal parts that aren't available anywhere I can find -- and really, I only need 1/4 or 1/8 of the panels in question, so it would be a huge waste to buy new. I'm lo

To take advantage of a cam like the Piper 285 that's on Ebay right now, you need a pretty hot motor in general. The Piper 285 is a long duration, very high lift cam -- you will need race valve spring

Actually, it sounds pretty close to being right, for a 4-syncro. The three bolts (if I'm remembering clearly) are stepped, and do not clamp the shifter retaining plate in place. They hold springs in

It gets my vote. Another reason -- the Fairey Fawn has a relationship to the subject of engine swaps. It used a Napier Lion engine, just like the one used in the famous Napier-Railton. Slow day at wo
