  2. with time for a quick snooze at lunctime when the rest of us were toiling away ❗
  3. Oily, how can I tell the difference? Is there a big performance difference? Malcolm
  4. Put a 'wanted' post up; I got a secondhand pair of SS cams last week as result of doing just that! Malcolm
  5. Hmm... If you are unable to get the sump drain out, its going to be messy! First thoughts are to remove spark plugs and disconnect crank sensor. Crank the engine over to oil pressure to fill the apollo tank, and this will partially empty the sump. Then remove oil filter and apollo sandwich adapter, elevate the latter to prevent oil running back to the sump. Then move the sump, not forgetting the two horizontal sump/bellhousing fixings. There will be still be some oil, so beware. On refitting the new sump the gasket can be reused and no sealant. Total capacity for apollo system with filter is 7.5 l, so a bit of guesswork of the refill.
  6. I thought 3 timed runs really made the day, and especially it allowed one class 2 competitor a chance to post a time 😳 😬 Malcolm Edited by - Englishmaninwales on 20 Oct 2007 01:40:35

  8. Ian Or, why not have a day out and join us at the awards lunch, take in the Heritage Centre included in £30 fee, as the event is open to all L7C members? Malcolm
  9. I know I'm a bit dim, but what does 'rotflmaf' mean? no definition on Google ☹️. I can guess that Neil doesn't think it's funny Malcolm

  11. Ian If Dave can't deliver and if the package can wait, I will be going to L7C sprint awards at Heritage Motor Centre, Gaydon in Warwickshire on 11 November. Onward delivery to Kent by other competitors attending? Malcolm
  12. He was even after my old sha@@ed out tyres 😳
  13. Dave, I don't think selling your car will stretch to a second hand ex-Groves' Gould..... Excellent day out and good company! edited to correct appalling grammar! Edited by - Englishmaninwales on 8 Oct 2007 23:13:48

  15. Any of you with upgradeitis have a pair of supersport cams surplus to requirements? Cash waiting! Malcolm
  16. here Looks a nice car. No connection to me, though!
  17. Brucey The original Rover engine number starts 1400K, 1600K or 1800K. ( unless of course it is an original Caterham engine, in which case the Rover number will the be missing ❗) Or measure stroke and bore? (1800 is a stroked 1600) malcolm Edited by - Englishmaninwales on 1 Oct 2007 14:49:38
