Where is the righteous indignation and the threats of boiling oil that greeted ME a couple years ago when I merely suggested the same thing. Where are all the...
Robert You are right, the lotus seven was always meant to be speed through lightness and all that. This question was direct, will the frame take a V8, and it...
Hi Mark, I looked through your gallery again. I'm dreaming of the day when I can get a shot of my car on a country road. I saw your homemade gas tank. I have...
George--I checked Th situation with the brake cylinder. I find I cannot move inboard with the master due to the steering shaft housing. HOWEVER-I can go...
for Robert, I think being "cheap, SAFE, and daily" does not really apply. A locost in fact goes like a striped assed ape in a hail storm. Some will test...
I'd go with a homemade tank. Heck, I did :) Race cars require the use of bladder-filled tanks, mostly because it's assumed that a racer WILL crash, and at high...
I guess that the Stalker crowd has shown that there is no "too much horsepower" in a clubman car. It is a case of what floats your boat. I personally am very...
Hi Nate, Try Jack at this link. http://www.kineticvehicles.com/ This is who I would go through if I were to buy new fenders for my 7. Martin Keller Ventura,...
Hey Ron, I used 18 gauge steel for the tank, with 2 baffles in it. When it was done, I coated the inside of it with gas tank sealer and then put gas tank...
Thanks Mark, Yes, 18 gauge seems about right to me also and my bender can handle it easily. Good idea using the tank sealer. I did have one previous unhappy...
Keith; How about a totally off the wall idea? take a look at the early flat nosed vans(ford or chevy) they mounted the master cylinder sideways and used a bell...
The one difference between a bike and a car is if you crash on the bike, most likely you aren't unconscious while the bike burns around you ;). If you ride a...
Howdy! I got a Allison V-1710 (that's inches, not cc's), suppose I could get in a 442 frame with a little mod. Just a little humor. (Remember a 32 3 window...
... My 76 Civic did that.. the passenger actually could stop the car by pressing on the rod that went into the master cyl. Pat Patterson Surrey, BC, Canada Got...
... Wish we could put up pix because somebody (Jim Lytie) put a V-12 Allison in a tube chassis Isetta, IIRC. ; -) As far as V8s in LoCosts is concerned, I'm...
My steering housing precludes anything right of the brake position. I think can use a guided 3/8" 18' rod to work it and places the master in front of the...
I finally have a set of emergency brake cables from a Miata that works. I am not confident with the calipers. Does anyone have a set of 1st generation that...
Hello, The engine mount for that engine is big (tubing is close to 2"OD if not bigger with thick walls) on the P-51 and mounted to a thick aluminum bulkhead....
I have a set of calipers from a 1.8L 95 car. They are off my miata that I parted out, it was a CA car for it's entire life so there's no rust almost at all. ...
I had heard about the tremendous torque of these monsters. They are the reason the P51 was so successful. John H. ________________________________ From:...
