Does anyone know where I can buy Lotus Logo T Shirts? Santa would like to bring me some to try to match my Fiat collection. John Whitney Wis X 1/9 & Lotus 61...
Try TS Imports in Pandora Ohio. I think he has them. I would also think the usual suspects such as DBE, RDE and Sports CAr World should have them. I don't have...
*My super-sweet daughter took a couple of Lotus logo clips to a Graphics shop where they scanned them to a program which could embroider onto caps and jackets...
Don't know if any of you have seen this piece on motor oils. I got this via the CVAR list. I find it interesting because of the number of people that have...
First, thanks in advance for all the great hand-holding I've received from this group - it's been invaluable to a green guy like me. I'm about to pull out my...
Andrew, Mostly wear issues with the cam lobe and concaving of the follower. Don't know which leads which or if they go together. We were blaming the failures...
Doug, Using a hoist (AKA:Cherry Picker), unbolt everything and lift the engine-gearbox out as a unit. Just go SLOWLY and make sure nothing is hanging up as it...
Do you have the original exhaust, just in bad shape? If so, kirk racing in the states can make a copy. Then did one for my 7 for $475. Very satisfactory...
Under the drawings listing there is reference to bulkhead skin drawings coming soon. Is this still in the works, or any posting date scheduled? thanks bob...
Just curious how many of you are still using the original mk6 gearbox vs updating to the mk9. Is the mk 9 a straight bolt in or is there work needed to make...
Bob, The primary differences are: Mk6 - original 4 speed gearbox, Mk8 - mechanically the same as a Mk6, can be configured as 4 or 5 speed, outboard brakes, Mk9...
The only difference is the differential and ring and pinion. The hubs that slip onto the pinion are different, but all is available from Taylor for the Mk6....
Am assembling the 61 after years. Question, on the front control arm pivot bolts ( I am going to use AN bolts and hardware when possible). Should the nuts...
Any idea if you can swap the side plates on non-lotus applications to put the mounts behind the half shafts, the mounts would be close to the location for a...
The side plates are not interchangeable side to side. However, there are Mk8 side plates made for Lotus rear mount applications. All the cases are more or less...
From the Taylor catalog: MK4- 15 spline pinion shaft, splines extending only 1/3 of pinion shaft. Pinion hubs keyed together by lugs. Ball bearings support...

Steve, Use Ny-Lock nuts on the suspension parts and then paint a line on the nut so that any loosening movement is easily identifiable. Tightness should be ...
Rob, It's just my opinion, but I think using a Ny-lock is not a positive safety when the component is potentially in motion. It would probably work fine, as...

Kyle, I'll have to tell that one to my wife. Could it be that when I bump my head on my low trailer door, that I was not imagining it to be a taller opening? ...
Very good. Your solution sounds like the correct one. In fact, since I am putting my suspension back on soon, I will likely machine up some bushings the...

The Mark 9 has CV joints and outboard brakes. You are actually looking for a Mk 8. It is an easy exchange as long as you use the Lotus sideplates. Larry...
