Bruce, Will this work in an older '82 S-3 with Smith's gauges? Tom

I tell them it is a Lotus Three and a Half. Caterham chassis and Lotus engine.

Where is it?

Depends...

My experience with DMV was similar at the Pasadena office. They knew nothing and had to get out a book that looked like it was from a Harry Potter movie. The BAR Referee was great. After his initial inspection of my car he gave me detailed instructions on how to deal with DMV and cautioned me against telling them I had spoken with him. His advice smoothed the path with DMV and when I returned to his place with the SB100 paperwork he congratulated me, attached the exemption sticker, and told me to have fun.

Offer them donuts. Sorry, I couldn't help myself... MV8 is on the right track. Just call the local non-emergency number and ask if someone can stop by. Or find out where you go to have a cop sign off a mechanical or equipment violation and go there. -
I use Grundy. Don't know if it is available in Canada. https://www.grundy.com/classic-cars/

Back in the old days my dad had an MG TD. At that time it was a simple four fingers up to an oncoming British sports car.

Years ago the aviation industry had issues with using Simple Green on aircraft parts. Since then Simple Green has modified the formula and markets a version that is okay with aluminum. I think it is Simple Green Aircraft and Precision Cleaner. Tom

Thanks for your offer, however I already ordered one from Berry Spencer up in Livermore. Tom

Thanks for all of this. I've been thinking of going with a 123 for my twincam to get rid of the Pertronix that goes from ignition to paperweight without warning. tom

I installed an AIM AFR on my twincam. Had a bung welded beyond where the two into one connection was. It works well, I'm just too illiterate to figure out how to log the data.

Heck, you should be able to get one of the docs at the ER to give you a prescription on your next visit with a patient...

Sorry I couldn’t be more help. Good luck

I wrote a long reply and then realized that it most likely didn't apply to your car. But in my car I can put a jack under the differential and lift it a bit to clear the prop shaft. My car is a live axle with an Ital differential and that may make a big difference.

I've removed my engine, and transmission, a few times and never had to remove the steering column. On the twincam I remove the headers and starter from the left side which gives me plenty of room. My car is a '82 Caterham S3.

I was able to remove my engine separately from my transmission, but there were extenuating circumstances...

What cool protective eyewear have you found?
toldfield replied to Xhilr8n's topic in General Sevens Discussion
These work well for hats https://capsurz.com glacier type glasses that restrict peripheral vision may not be legal in all states. They are not legal in California. -
Yes. I'm currently running 185/13's and they are very predictable and provide a nice ride. I don't drive in the rain and avoid sprinklers that are hitting the pavement.
