Greg, If you have air in the lines the clutch would not disengage properly and you would be grinding gears. If your fluid was low you need to ask yourself where it is going? It may be getting all ove

I have converted my 70 Spitfire MK3 to GT6 brakes/suspension up front. As others have said the whole assembly is necessary. Works great. I run either Panasports or Revolutions so I will refer to Andy

Richard, Thanks for your thoughts. I have altered the 250's crankcase ventilation and most likely restricted it from stock. The troublesome symptom is gray/black smoke blowing out the tail pipe unde

I guess I will just have to take the Spit into the paint shop and have her resprayed in BROWN with an ORANGE stripe right done the middle. That will teach her! Cheers, Darrell
