On Mk I, II, III, the stabalizer is located to the left and above the fuse panel. At least, on LHD vehicles, not sure about the wiring of cars for the home market. Hi James, Sorry - when I said regul

For several years now I've heard reference to engine modifications in stages, such as "Stage II Heads" etc. I gather that a higher number means a higher performance part and bigger bucks. Beyond tha

Well, I've added one more part to the list of things to fix. All four of the plastic guide blocks on my window regulators are broken. They're only 39 years old, so I doubt age has anything to do with

I was at a show in Dayton a few years back and there was a guy "welding" aluminum tube, cans, plate, etc. with a propane torch and some sort of alloy rod. I found several sites on the web that supply

Ground strap on mine connects the body to the engine block using one of the bolts above the starter that hold the bellhousing to the engine. Don't know if it's "original", but I've routed the battery

Sounds like you got a bad cam, unless you failed to lube that particular lobe during assembly. I'd try to get a replacement from them at no cost. If you send the cam back, they may be able to analyz
