Re: Is EH sump the solution

Thanks mate. Sounds promising. I have a HT/HD radiator in the stock position and the motor won’t fit the stock fan, had to go a slim line performance aluminium fan that just slots in. Will try get a pic.

car very hard to start after distributor change

Hi all,
So I recently put new electronic dizzy, coil & plugs leads in the EK. I have a red 202 in there and the dizzy was making some whining bearing noises so thought I'd take that as an excuse to replace with new parts. The plugs are properly gapped, the dizzy is aligned properly by finding top ...

Re: 3.89 Banjo diff centre

hey mate, I've got the original centre out of my EK Special sedan that's in good knick. I pulled it out a couple years back and changed it over to a 3.08. But this was only to try get to revs down on the highway, not cause there was any dramas with it. Just been sitting in the garage since.

cheers ...

Re: HK rims on a FB

Alright here's a test. I have toranan discs on front end and the stud thread takes a 12 x 1.5 nut, I'm running original rims so need the 60deg taper. Is there an original but that has this combination??
