Dave Donaldson and Todd Allen are putting together the fourth Texas H-body Meet at Little River Dragway near Temple, TX on May 16th. I attended for the first...
Sounds like fun. I would LOVE to come with my '72 GT, but that's the same day I was planning on going to the Super Chevy Show at the Texas Motorplex in Ennis,...
Mike Based of past experiences at Super Chevy in Ennis - I would go to Temple. The last time I went (over 10 years ago) there were over 500 Cars in the show...
I hope both of you can make it to Temple. I might not get there until Saturday evening, and I'm also trying to get Sherman Wright to come with his GMC...
Hi, David Hard to say, but if we get a couple Cosworths there we can run them head-to-head. The panel would also be cool, and we did not have a Notch last...
Hey Guys, I have a very slow water leak on 2911. The radiator, radiator hose and water pump are all dry after a good warming up. The leak appears to be coming...
Not as bad as a factory A/C H-body where you have to remove the whole dash, but bad enough. You'll have to remove the air cleaner assembly, throttle body and...
To get the housing off, there are 3 studs with nuts on the engine/firewall side. 1 hex head in the upper left corner above the blower, and ONE hex head from...
Thanks for the replies, guys. After letting the car sit over-night I think have found the real leak. It's coming from the water pump. Since the radiator hose...
Mike, my cosworth eats water pumps - apparently the problem with our water pumps is the fan - too much stress on the pump bearings - anyone out there run their...
The Cosworth does not have a history of "eating water pump bearings". However, there are a few things to ponder as the cause of the problem. Rebuilt water pump...
You can "grab" the fan blade (engine off!) and see if the blade wobbles on the water pump bearings. A sure indication that it is bad. bob ... From: Mike...
The Club sells rebuilt Cosworth Vega (9 rib pulley and reduced flow impeller)water pumps. They contain the correct impeller, and are fitted with a premium...
Ollie, et al, it might be my bad luck with cosworth water pumps - the worse service I had was one month with a new GM cosworth water pump. out of desperation...
Hi Reed, With a history of failures like that - I can understand your thought process. The premature failure within 30 days of a new GM pump is more an...
Mark & All, I need to clarify one item. The Club DOES NOT sell water pumps with the low flow impeller and hasn't since before I took over from Chris...
Ollie, thanks for the information - I will check the antifreeze lable in the future. BTW I have a water pump on my chevy nova that is approx 30 yrs old and...
Hi Folks, My son and I were driving down the road yesterday in my home town and we stop at an intersection. I make a left and as I look in my rear view mirror...
Hi All, I have a complete Hutton Weber setup for a CV that I will be selling. It has the manifold, two carbs, choke cable, air cleaner and hardware. I also...
Temple is just north of where I live. The event sounds like fun. I do have a couple of questions..... 1. I can only be there one day. Would Saturday be the...
Now THAT is a nice story with a happy ending too! Did you ever notice how excited we get when we see a Cosworth - or even a Vega in daily traffic?? Reminds me...
"Reminds me of an oasis in the Mojave......" Yes I agree Ollie..Even though they are a lot less rarer, I still get very excited when I see an old (seventies &...
I agree. I drive my Vega back and forth to work 1 or 2 days a week, and use it as as my driver on the weekends. I get looks where ever I go. People give me...
Thanks for the over-load of information guys! Since I won't be able to fix this until I move this summer (late june), I'll put these emails away and get ready...
Hello Group, a couple of years ago at the local car show here in Lebanon, IN another cosworth showed up from Muncie - it's only the 3rd time I've seen another...
Tod: The original owner of this car has been searching for it for about 10 years. See message 18209. I've written him to announce its discovery. Mark/The...
