Eliot I've done two heads- one that's still running, one that hasn't started, yet. With the right tools, cutting the valve seats and grinding the valves is...
What do you guys use? I'm looking for something that can be expanded later. In other words, I'm cheap right know! I need a driver and one crew set-up. What...
Todd; We are using a basic setup from PED engineering. We are using them because they are local and advertise in Sports Car. I think the whole deal from them...
I'm hoping the tuning experts will chime in on these questions. I put my new 2L race engine on a chassis dyno for 4 pulls yesterday, just trying to get the...
Eric, CONGRATULATIONS!!! I do not know that much to be able to tell you about a correct Air Mixture. From the experience I have (little) and the Weber books I...
Instead of guessing, I'd rather see the brake specific numbers first for fuel throughout the rev range, looking for something around the .485-.515 range,...
Thanks Peter. Let me ask a follow-up question out of ignorance. Just how is the brake specific number obtained? I assume you need a very accurate way of...

The numbers Erik showed for AFR look like they're coming from a WB02 where the numbers Peter specifies are from a NB02. Also, it's hard to measure the BSFC...

One more time, begging for a limited slip for my old 1600. SOVREN rules won't let me change center section. John Gates Enumclaw, wa...
John, I looked a long time and had close to $1800 in mine by the time I finally got it rebuilt and working right. The car is noticeably easier to drive, but...
Yep. Mine is welded and I've broken one axle on each side in 2 years (the second one this spring). I now have 1750 axles on both sides and fingers crossed on...
Generally- it is true that engines seem to make the most power between 12-12.5:1, but it's pretty hard to actually see the difference, assuming nothing else...
John, Are you allowed to modify the carrier? I have a design . . . as yet untested . . . that will add a preload between axles. It does not increase the...
I am contemplating replacing the existing 25 litre (non-original) tank in my Giulietta Sprint Veloce race car with a larger 80 litre tank built to original...
Has anyone looked into or tried a 'Phantom Grip' diff centre: http://www.phantomgrip.com/products.htm Some of the guys I run with, mostly racing Alfasuds, have...
Jim, this preload idea would be interesting. While my only thought when trying the posi was going faster. I did break 2 axles full lock before and none since...
I have some limited (yuk yuk)reports on these...seems the front wheel drive go to the drag strip guys like them, the round the bend folks haven't been so kind....
Don't know where you are getting your new tank, but I had one made by Fuel Safe to original spec, saved 2 lbs, and they can provide a capacitance sender that...
Thanks to everyone who replied on and off-line to my A/F questions. What I've learned is that I really need to understand what I already have before doing much...
John, I raced my 750 Giulietta Sprint for 6 years without a fuel gauge : the road mpg was 26/27 to the gallon and track mileage was about half that. I just ...

... john, seems to me there will be a panel in the top of the tank so the foam may be inserted and removed when necessary. take the panel off, fill it to the...
I received that same announcement from AMB. I fear that having current lap times available in my race car would be distracting. I should be thinking about...
