Hi Andy: It's not a download time issue, I'm getting the little yellow triangle with ! and "error" at the bottom left corner of the screen, maybe that gives...
My 2.0 115 GTV is coming out of retirement and I need to redo the exhaust system. It had an ANSA center section (rusted out)with a straight pipe in the rear....
Bill: Since you need a muffler for occasional street use, a side exhaust would be difficult as there would be little vertical clearance under the seat where...
I knew one of the Besics would step up! Hats off to ya, and I'll see you all at Autobahn! ... From: b6gtv To: alfaracing@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, January...
Hi Bill, I built a system from 2" straights, tube bends, and a flowmaster muffler, which bolts via flange to my aging sperry headers. Since the car was...
my autoXr has a damaged nose and needs a "front end" and all the plastic grill pieces that attach to it. will pay cash, swap parts, maybe even buy a parts...
Eliot, The SCCA limit is 102 db. Higher than 103 is cause for disqualification. See: http://www.scca.com/contentpage.aspx?content=44 2008 GCR Page 39. Ciao,...
Eliot doesn't know the details. Over all his races, he has made the noise sheet once. His car is so quiet, half the time you don't know it's running. I think...
... SCCA races at NHIS (and I believe at Watkins Glen?) are 99 dB...Lime Rock Park varies from race to race. Have seen it lower than 102 dB. HPDE events (like...
The problem: When I start My Little Car, a 1600, the starter pinion drags on the flywheel just as the engine starts, making a tinkling sort of sound. It is...
Hi John, Long time no talk. Do you have a shim between the starter and bellhousing? I just passed along a box with a number of bellhousing and starter shims. ...
How thick should the shim be? I have seen a couple different thicknesses. Different thicknesses for a two bolt -vs- a three bolt? Tom Lesko Hingham, MA usa ......
I am offering the motor out of my vintage racecar. I have changed to a 1600 as required by CSRG, the club that I race with. The motor has about 40 hours on it...
Great question, I have also seen different thicknesses and don't know if there was one standard thickness for 2 and a different for 3 bolt starters or if there...
When I first got my GTV race car, it had a stock LSD with the extra clutch discs (4 total), but little or no preload. I'm not sure if it was set up that way...
Without a doubt the best (and most cost effective) LSD is the OS Giken unit. I run their ring & pinion as well. I gave up screwing around a/ stock AR LSD a...

Hi Erik, I'm in the no-preload camp, however "shimming" is required to set the stack height of the plates slightly less than the "cylinder" they operate in....
Gary, I can answer that one. It's a bolt-in unit sold in the US by Santos in California. OS Giken also makes gear sets and some other stuff for our cars. ...
Does anyone have a recommendation for a competition radiator for my 1960 Sprint? Would a generic aluminum unit work? If so . any recommended suppliers/part...
Erik; Though it's in a GTV6 transaxle (Milano Platinum LSD), I also set up with clearance in the LSD unit, but less than stock. Gap was set at just under .005"...
Hey Mike, Did this almost like you said but we took a spray can top and trimmed it to fit both sides so that the urethane stuck out from both sides of the...
I've got the mold here and plan to make a new one for myself in the coming weeks. Give us a call at Prototype Composites! www.prototypecomposites.com (414)...
Pete, since no one else has replied, I'll chime in. A generic aluminum radiator will work fine, cool better and reduce weight. But you are unlikely to find...
Erik has seen the mid 90s VW Scirroco radiators that I run in my Giulietta. Most newer small cars use these single alluminum core with plastic side tank type...
