  1. Interesting that it has K L in the number I thought K was for a Ford Kent engine, and L for LHD that's how mine is Being #6, I wonder if it's the oldest Westfield "7" left out there
  2. have you tried GMT Racing? gmtracing.com
  3. BTW it was Caterham that sued Westfield
  4. Welcome interesting car...lots of differences compared to mine...chassis # in the 70's Do you know if it was built here, or brought in done? I don't know when they started selling them here, but #6 would seem too early for a kit. Too bad they painted all the aluminum strange front fender setup, looks more like a copy of a Lotus 6 different headlight mounts and rear roll bar mounts evolution in action! is it LHD or RHD? I can't really tell from pics what type of wheels? those look like mine--Mistrals I'm guessing a BMC A-series powertrain? join the Westfield club wscc.co.uk
  5. If you install a roll bar tall enough to do any good, it will be taller than your top frame. Here's pic of my Westfield stock bar. It's 16" tall, and doubles as top frame. I had to build a taller one when I used the car for my vintage driver school in 1993. It's 22" tall, so there's no way to put the top over it. If it will do you any good, I can probably have it -the tall one- in Appleton in November
  6. crossflow should be 1/2-20 hope they didn't bugger the threads
  7. The Westfield has 2 little stubs that stick out about an inch, and the rig bolts on over them. I just built a shorter one to hold the plate, and can switch back if needed
  8. because you don't drive the type of car Gavin & Co like LOL
  9. I-80 is about 1250 feet in Lincoln
  10. A few years ago, I added a beeper to mine, because the light was right behind the top of the steering wheel. Had the same issue Fixed it with a pair of diodes feeding the buzzer, one from each side
  11. All British show in Kansas City yesterday from the right Russ's brit built locost my Westfield 7 a real S2 "America" locost project w/Miata donor locost w/ GM v6
  12. I couldn't find a diagram of the steering column in an S2, but if it's like my Westfield, you'll have difficulties. The wheel is too close to the dash for any QD adapter I've used. And, there's a flange welded to the end, that the wheel bolts onto, which would need to be cut off, and the wheel will end up closer to you. If I were doing it, I'd certainly fab a new shaft to mount the QD on, and not muck up the original check the ID of the QD, you might have to sleeve it to fit the shaft
  13. FWIW you can get valve covers without a hole/cap Burton has them pricey Dave Bean or Ivey ??
  14. this is similar to the can I used on mine mount it as high as possible https://www.ebay.com/itm/286815733808?_skw=oil+catch+can&itmmeta=01M0DPEJP41N0H19G0E1EH6CAT&hash=item42c78cc830:g:9LcAAOSwQuFkEXpI&itmprp=enc%3AAQALAAAA0GfYFPkwiKCW4ZNSs2u11xDvAUbi4%2FCnjDXpZqkVb1vQelnDIxAnNV%2BwJKZvcVbLyVoySB96KTaDMxkd8rQwn%2Fzabj%2B56mc8DNsyef%2FC22q5CTCr0lkgAJ86DmVfVNX85TEJxY2raRpAHUkrLLeecOUUr18N%2F7BJeaIU00RWnOoQLId%2BIvczoabQmBiJKRgCaJtuzuSuUIiqnTOpHihUMWfzNIoqMleUKQJ87lyvab4s%2FLfB1Lk6aI1xi%2BCnF6FFRRVq83CqO0Vlq1CtgW18qWM%3D|tkp%3ABlBMUMqruraDaA
  15. go for it that's how mine is vented, and also most of the Formula Fords in the world it's probably 1/2" npt or maybe 3/8
