7Westfield

FWIW that pegasus link is not the one for a x-flow I just picked it for illustration

https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/productselection.asp?Product=1236 the gold colored fitting holds the sandwich plate to the pump it's right above the filter it screws onto the threads that used to hold the filter if yours is like this, all you need to do is remove it and install a filter I have seen some with male threads on both ends---if you have that style, you need the fitting from an another pump edit---forgot I had one in the basement this photo is the bottom side remove filter-remove gold fitting-install filter

which engine? if it's a x-flow, the sandwich plate is likely held on to the pump with a special fitting just swap back to the stock item

I haven't needed a piston stop for quite a while, but next time, I'm just going to gut an old spark plug Then either tap the inside for a bolt, or weld a slug into it

I guess that rib is the timing mark---doesn't look the same as a xflow, but it's in the right place distributor rotates CCW firing order 1 2 4 3

trying to ID an early 7 race car, we presume an S2 where would the number tag have been? no sign of it, or any open rivet holes would this have been an Arch frame? I know there was a link on here somewhere to someone who had all the info, but I can't find it

I'd let a shop do it. If you have comp insurance, it may be covered.

AFAIK Ford never recast the 2 liters, but there were some others who made limited runs I don't see 1600s available at pegasus or summit now, so maybe that run by Ford has all sold out I heard somewhere that the industrial division at Ford was part of the push for the recasting project--think old forklifts When they decided to do it, they made some improvements, such as better metallurgy, using the 2 liter thrust washer, and beefing up the bottom bellhousing bolt "ears" I wonder if there will be any more produced, or if we're running out again, for the last time.

The bike units were my first thought, but I figured I'd see what others have used. I get so tired of trying to sort out whether the stuff on ebay is simply bad, or really crap

yeah, saw some of those the first and last seem to be UK beam pattern only #2 is a possibility also looking at https://www.carbuilder.com/uk/4-inch-satin-black-headlamp

housings---entire assembly

yes 5.75 or smaller

Anyone got a recommendation for headlights for my Westfield? I'm looking to replace the 7" units with something smaller.

I run Toyo RA1's 205/60-13 13x6 wheels on my prelit Westy pressure 22 front 18 rear street use plus autocross with local brit club tried a set of the Dunlop FF tires once---horrible would be a complement not bad on race track, but on the street they wander all over--they'll change direction on a paint stripe these cars really prefer radials Charlie

Back in the day, some racers would tweak the live axle housing to get a bit of negative camber.

I went Racetech for tach + speedo using Autometer mechanical for the rest, mostly cause I like full sweep faces Burton does show a n elec racetech OP unit, but calibrated in bars

I've seen those Spitfire steering arms bend under impact. Pop the tie rod ends off and measure to something, like the brake rotor or tire

Oil's not the answer I'd be suspecting a broken gear tooth

I can only guess that what Pegasus meant was that they were no longer making the special sets they sold. Generic sets still everywhere I prefer the Taylor stuff

interesting....Taylor seems to still be going strong Summit has like 700 sku's https://www.summitracing.com/search/department/ignitions-electrical/section/spark-plug-wires-and-accessories/part-type/spark-plug-wire-sets?N=brand%3Ataylor-cable

https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/productselection.asp?Product=1310 they have dropped a couple of sets, but still have these buy the 8 cylinder set and be set for life

just build your own universal adapter I use this on oddball units that I don't have a spare cap for

Pegasus used to be the place for that linkage, but they haven't had any for a long time I have one, but it's on a car call Pete at Total Precision engines 970-797-0712 he builds FF motors he had a bunch of similar units made up, don't know if he has any left he can probably set you up with a manifold too or, just go nuts... https://www.ebay.com/itm/155449426501?hash=item2431820245:g:idMAAOSwlIxfurzq&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA8DbWQD2nvSZQ7RzreIrW1H91Q%2Br5YOYEnEGTGoizLe3GziR0CJFQw1JNDSJ3Y7BhW6g5hklPJGVGnC4EeNt068vuUGRUpamkdHyVb5eyT5xTudXJhPVWDZ1IVre4ST4SrXA6kRmQDKkbpsSWgZDU419zsi3JlU17giua5%2Fm%2FLnSsKYefoouSX7JYx5WuU0QeXyS%2Fe%2Bqe2RTpcnvDNqqfG91po%2BKsoc5P8LLix13V2i35c%2BwamZbQFW7c64QrCqqgGCwjDVe4Co9ksFINyyH3iob6trzJiWKfIkBDBUCqPKIDKYPH1qeoRd9dtT9toDS7fQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR9Ca1ebHYg Charlie

https://www.speedwaymotors.com/Nomex-Honeycomb-Radiator-Guard-Protector-Screen-Mesh-18-x-22,29432.html this is what I use on a formula ford just cut a piece and hang it on the front of the rad with small zip ties edit---put it against the rad, not spaced away

My pre-lit also came with the mk4 spit cylinder the reservoir started leaking, so I converted it to a remote res then, later, I went to the mazda unit I was never happy with pedal feel with the spit unit Mazda unit is better, but still not perfect
