  1. Burton guys...
  2. @32eachtime you still haven't shown us a complete URL. On your phone, turn it horizontal to take the screenshot and get more of the URL. You can copy and paste it into the text here like this, after adding quotes to it: "https://usa7s.net/ips/topic/15036-caterham-parts/#comment-143881" Horizontal shot: Vertical shot: I am in agreement with you, you were likely taken by an imposter. Caterham parts doesn’t deserve the bash it's getting on this thread, especially since we don't have a URL to judge! And, so I'm at least somewhat helpful, now I know what you ordered, I have a plate light I'll give you, the black plastic housing type. PM me and I'll get you pics. I'll hook you up.
  3. Put some straps on them and call them baby seats. I think there is a reduced rate for those.
  4. @CarlB did you see any part numbers on the BH?
  5. Well, Going through my parts, I found a 2.0 Pinto flywheel and a 1x23 green spring Pinto disc. Now I am wondering, for my T9 conversion, If I should go all the way with a Pinto pressure plate and starter? Staying 100Hp and possibly lower with the Xflow. I also have 1x23 Xflow 7.5" discs.
  6. Suspecting that voltage fluctuations may be a cause of false readings, Has anyone tried running the oil pressure circuit off the battery, out of the loom?
  7. Have an oil catch can going from the case breather. Fill ultil the excess blow out. It's normal to have some discharge on every run. Top off when you don't get discharge. Crude, yes. But a good visual to know it's full
  8. All good advice. The scammers/thieves are very clever. A goid practice to follow is if someone contacts you claiming to be from a business, or government, or anyone requesting money or personal information, Always question it. Do checks to see if they are legitimate, imposters, scams, etc. Ask close family for their opinion. I have a close family member who was taken for thousands over months. All she had to do was let someone know ir was happening. She isn't a dumb person, the scamming was very through. At her age, the financial loss, and unfortunately the loss of confidence in her reasoning, is, unfortunate. All she had to do was question it.
  9. An opportunity for an inverted airfoil for ground effect. Or at least good discussion.
  10. I can send you a grommet. See your mailbox. But the zip ties are probably better. The slot in the pedal box that travel cable is usually for a preload spring, 15lbs or so. BTW... That frame rust is what you get from that pedal box cover collecting condensate. Consider venting it on top.
  11. That's interesting. I would expect the cast links to be more valuable.
  12. Please see the article here and the embedded videos. The short: you can't trust that your personal checks will be respected. The number of immoral people has reached a point where you cannot be trusting anyone with the information on a personal check. https://www.click2houston.com/news/local/2024/08/09/houston-area-postal-worker-accused-of-stealing-cash-and-gift-cards-from-mail/ OK, you may live in Happy Family township and not have these problems. Good for you.
  13. 1600 X-flow, 80s uprated AX. 7.5" clutch. I am looking to get a fresh clutch cover, or pressure plate. I understand (it took a long time to learn this) cable operated and hydraulic operated clutch require different clutch covers. Or more specifically, the thrust bearings do. The cable clutch will typically have a flat faced thrust bearing on curly spring fingers or platen topped fingers, and the hydraulic will have a donut faced bearing on flat faced fingers. Mixing these should be avoided, but staying with cable, I have the two options, curly finger or platen. Which is better? Curly Platen Pics from QED and west wales rally spares

  15. How did I not see that? I'm surprised we don't get boot shots or nose off shots.
  16. Perfect Car. Alternative chassis? A Live Axle without the damper stems poking through the boot cover?
  17. I've had problems contacting Arch due to my emails going to the SPAM folder.
  18. Maybe one of these can get you primed https://www.summitracing.com/search/part-type/engine-prelubers
  19. I didn't get a notification for a reply at 6:45pm Tuesday.
  20. I think you have #1 https://archmotor.co.uk/ info@archmotor.co.uk
  21. Whatever a 1971> 1600 OHV Escort would use. Uprated 711 or AX crossflow
  22. I've been running my 7yo lawnmower on Trufuel for the last 4 years. No problems starting and loves it. I'm impressed because I didn't expect an MTD engine to last this long. My plan going forward is to flush my carbs with this fuel if it's going to be idle. Definitely keeping the Trufuel in the generator $25/GAL.
  23. Right. We have that here too, we just call it Ethanol-free. And avoid E-85 all together.
