just a reflection on the "screen" filters... I maintain a vintage FF for a friend years ago we were at a race, and it was running hot, ambient air way up there I had put 10 / inch screen in front of rad for rock protection -probably 3-4 inches ahead yanked it out and got 15 degrees

Avon Tyres has been bought by Nova Motorsport, UK
7Westfield replied to Anaximander's topic in Wheels and Tires
I was told, by a prospective dealer, over the weekend that when the new folks looked at the equipment and molds, they determined that the stuff was so old and outdated that moving it would ruin most of it if true, it's probably game over -

No info on what's proper, but I do know you will have a lot less rocks to shovel out of the seat than the burgundy car....

The answer to question #1 is probably yes....and yes My prelit had a hole in the plate with a 1/4" pipe elbow on it, always wet If you do put another fitting in the plate, use an AN bulkhead fitting with a stat-o-seal washer A gob of epoxy should seal that hole, or a zap with the MIG How close is the gauge hole to an edge of the tank? Is it close enough that you could put a bulkhead fitting in the front or end of the tank near the top? when I built my new tank, I used weld-on bungs When looking for a new sender, you also need to match the resistance to the gauge

Just a thought....will your homeowner policy cover it? same as theft from your car at that point it's "stuff", not a "vehicle" HO policy covered stolen trailer for a friend

If you want a bottom mount, look at big Healeys Moss has a couple of sizes

NPT AFAIK you could always run a tap in and open them up a bit

Get longer bolts with the proper grip length, then shorten the threads with a cutoff wheel, if needed Loctite

Crossflow Cooling System -Overflow Tank or Expansion Tank
7Westfield replied to KS7's topic in General Tech
I'd be a bit worried about that thermostat housing. I've had a pressed in fitting blow out of a xflow fuel pump , and this is running more than double the pressure. If there's enough meat there, I'd tap it for a threaded fitting. FWIW SCCA hasn't allowed those fuel fittings for years -

I was told, on another forum, it will be like 8 months to be back in business -
Maybe check with Caterham, and see who made the harness?

My prelit has the battery on the floor right behind the passenger's butt access by removing RR wheel (sort of), or remove boot floor (5 screws) garden tractor battery--2 common amperages, depending on how you want terminals arranged

There will probably be some air sucked in where the primaries go into the collector, affecting your numbers

I thought all the 90 degree units were 1:1 ratio, with any adjusting done by way of the drive gear, or in the speedo... I assume you have a 1500 Ford, so this is probably it https://www.burtonpower.com/90-degree-speedo-drive-adaptor-gbt9560.html

Crossflow Cooling System -Overflow Tank or Expansion Tank
7Westfield replied to KS7's topic in General Tech

Crossflow Cooling System -Overflow Tank or Expansion Tank
7Westfield replied to KS7's topic in General Tech
I have a tank similar to this on mine,except that the lower port is on the front so it can sit lower on the scuttle. Lower port is plumbed to the heater port on the water pump. Upper port goes to the thermostat housing with a -4 braided line. With a couple of holes in the stat it fills easily and works great FWIW head gaskets on xflows are better than you think. 3-4 years ago, we blew a FF engine because the water pump stopped (lower pulley broke) water not circulating, so gauge didn't go up got it hot enough to seize a valve in the guide, and of course it was open, so you know what happened to the piston..... head gasket was fine https://www.ebay.com/itm/382539232737?hash=item59111d75e1:g:gYMAAOSwNE9kRLG2&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0AsBkwM0otc9BdLPcwCtpoxz7hYCOV3H7cBI0jB4nhFhr9KA5C6E2Je45rRktOXefYeugBo7LxE75r47B5jTbHi7gCWAhkJ9ySUW4cH3LB0evB1vzbm7ewqxPmOjCtntlcHgMzSsgK3PtDQVyHjr40u91gEOSustAfh6097g73y5UTEdxuWIso9dt%2FiMtYPf3fGuvPyEfFh78SAXK4hraYp4y4DFUKToybBvtkIgRifoTEIzuXKXaSH%2Bh3oRqxKMtkT336oGF7xsuFMi6QMoUls%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR8DOx8KKYw -
If it's an aluminum tank, be very careful with lye, it will attack the aluminum
