If all else fails I think I have a spare pair of horizontal float chambers from a set of Jaguar HD8?s that I had converted<br>
happy to part with them for the freight costs but you can probably find units closer to home at a Jaguar Wreckers<br>

Subject: [Healeys] SU HD6 float chamber<br>
<br>
G'day all<br>
<br>
I'm looking for a horizontal float chamber for an SU HD6 carb. They are mostly angled for semi-downdraft applications, but I need one for a horizontal application on a Shorrock supercharger.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>

Hi Steve,<br>
<br>
<br>
This is an interesting solution. Just called Tom and looked at the link you sent me, ordered a couple of plates and will try this method. Looks like it should work, I'll let you know.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you for this idea.<br>

Tom's Import Toys sells handy replacement plates for $99.50 the pair:<br>

<br>
These should be stronger than the Moss captive nuts. You open up the end of the shock tower, knock out the captive nuts and slide the plate in.<br>

Anybody know why this isn't available in California any more? Yes, it <br>
supposedly has high levels of ZDDP, but to my knowledge only the 20W-50, <br>
as do other 20W-50s that are still available. My local parts house told <br>
me a while ago they 'had to pull it off the shelves,' and my engine <br>
builder says it's NLA in California, but he sells Kendall 20W-50, which <br>
claims high ZDDP.<br>
<br>
AFAIK, it can still be 'imported.'<br>

The link takes me to a page where the only choice is to order 15W-40 ?Classic? brand motor oil with 1,600 ppm zinc. Not VR1 racing oil.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Found some VR1 sources for $7 buck or so and up to $18/quart. Glad I bought the local supply out months ago. No doubt the availability is due to some EPA or BAAQMD regulation. The latter is the California equivalent to the EPA.<br>

Beverly Hills Car Club has a car for sale that they say is HBT7L3678. The<br>
car has the features of a BJ7 or Phase 1 BJ8 and none of a BT7. Is it<br>
physically possible without major structural modification to create a<br>
BJ7/BJ8 from a BT7? Can a convertible windshield and doors be used directly<br>
onto a BT7 body?<br>

Yes, I know it's easier just to put a BT7 VIN plate on a BJ8, but that isn't<br>
the question.<br>

Interesting----Several years ago, an auto parts place here in Pa told me the same story----but---wasn't true. Where he got that info , who knows. I get it in most autoparts place. Have been using it for a long time.<br>

I was told the same thing at AutoZone here in Florida and when I inquired at <br>
their headquarters, they told me that they're only selling the 20W 50 weight <br>
and it is now located in their motorcycle and ATV section. I got 2 cases <br>
from ebay at $6.50 a quart and free shipping.<br>

While I no longer have my BT-7, the place where the top frame assembly fits<br>
on this car looks familiar. On the other hand, it also looks like it has<br>
the mounting plate for a later style convertible top. Is this a clue?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Also as regards your comment regarding major structural modification: it<br>
appears the entire long frame rails have been patched or replaced for most<br>
of their lengths, as evidenced by the lack of weld beads, as well as the new<br>
beads where they were welded in. is the frame work another clue?<br>

I order mine from Amazon when my local suppliers' shelves are empty. Price <br>
is competitive with the auto-parts stores (if you have Prime and don't pay <br>
for shipping). Maybe you could try this route in California. I also use <br>
single-weight 40, 50 and 60 VR1 sometimes.<br>

Looking at the photos, it appears that the chassis is indeed from a BJ7 or BJ8, at least the "B" posts have the holes for the door latch from a BJ8. However the door hinges are from an earlier model for sure as the later cars had the square plates against
the "A" posts from what I recall. The front shroud of a BJ8 is quite different at the windshield so the front shroud of a BT7 would not work for a BJ7/BJ8 from what I know. I think as you indicated they simply used a BT7 Serial number. It certainly appears
that they are trying to get rid of some of their parts accumulated over the years and they had enough for one car. Dealers such as that place could not care less as long as there is money for them in the end.<br>

The only bad thing about replacing is that you lose the original VIN number stamped into the side of the right side plate.<br>
<br>
It might be difficult to spot, but after removing the paint it was visible on my car.<br>

Hi Steve, <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
This is an interesting solution. Just called Tom and looked at the link you sent me, ordered a couple of plates and will try this method. Looks like it should work, I'll let you know.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you for this idea.<br>

These should be stronger than the Moss captive nuts. You open up the end of the shock tower, knock out the captive nuts and slide the plate in.<br>

Thanks for your thoughts, Jean. The door hinges are from a BJ7 or Phase 1<br>
BJ8. All of the body parts I see in the photos are BJ7 or Phase 1 BJ8.<br>
Some photos show "spare parts", including what appears to be an armrest and<br>
shreds of original red carpet from a BT7, along with a pre-BJ8 speedometer.<br>
<br>
<br>
I am not familiar enough with pre-BJ8 models to say whether the convertible<br>
windshield and doors would fit on a BT7, but I think they would not.<br>
Perhaps the VIN plate on the firewall belongs to those BT7 "spare parts". I<br>
think it more likely that someone had a Phase 1 BJ8 and put a BT7 VIN plate<br>
on the firewall than that they tried to make a BJ8 out of a BT7. In that<br>
case, why keep the BT7 VIN plate? <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
As far as I know, BHCC just sells the cars they buy on to someone else and<br>
don't restore or repair them. I wouldn't think they would be assembling a<br>
car from miscellaneous parts.<br>

Steve, <br>
<br>
Looking at the photos, it appears that the chassis is indeed from a BJ7 or<br>
BJ8, at least the "B" posts have the holes for the door latch from a BJ8.<br>
However the door hinges are from an earlier model for sure as the later cars<br>
had the square plates against the "A" posts from what I recall. The front<br>
shroud of a BJ8 is quite different at the windshield so the front shroud of<br>
a BT7 would not work for a BJ7/BJ8 from what I know. I think as you<br>
indicated they simply used a BT7 Serial number. It certainly appears that<br>
they are trying to get rid of some of their parts accumulated over the years<br>
and they had enough for one car. Dealers such as that place could not care<br>
less as long as there is money for them in the end. <br>

Beverly Hills Car Club has a car for sale that they say is HBT7L3678. The<br>
car has the features of a BJ7 or Phase 1 BJ8 and none of a BT7. Is it<br>
physically possible without major structural modification to create a<br>
BJ7/BJ8 from a BT7? Can a convertible windshield and doors be used directly<br>
onto a BT7 body?<br>

This car looks like a pile of parts that got put together to make up a car.<br>
The rear shroud is BJ7, Phase 1 BJ8<br>
Carbs are BJ7<br>
Doors are BJ8<br>
Dash is a BJ8<br>
Front shroud BJ7 , Phase 1 BJ8<br>
Vent windows are BJ8<br>
Frame cut out for the exhaust is BJ8 late<br>
<br>
Also notice that there are no front springs or plates, the rear end is not attached., the frame is CRAP<br>

While I no longer have my BT-7, the place where the top frame assembly fits on this car looks familiar? On the other hand, it also looks like it has the mounting plate for a later style convertible top. Is this a clue?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Also as regards your comment regarding major structural modification: it appears the entire long frame rails have been patched or replaced for most of their lengths, as evidenced by the lack of weld beads, as well as the new beads where they were welded in.
is the frame work another clue?<br>

To your original question, I think it would be possible, but you'd also<br>
have to change the rear shroud as well to get the chrome door top finisher<br>
to match the small chrome finisher on the shroud. Much easier to jack up<br>
the VIN of the BT7 and drive a BJ8 under it. BTW, BHCC has a search<br>
function that says "Find the car of your dreams" Obviously, it was broken<br>
for this one.<br>
