I have several Spridet axles including wire wheel. Need to confirm correct track width, Spridget is only about 50". Also wondering if Spridget front suspension parts are of any use? I know the gauges can work.

The only real 7 I ever got to drive was Sprite powered so I think an S2, even had wire wheels. Just lucked into a ton of Spridget parts and so interested in recreating the nifty little 7 I drove all those years (Decades!) ago. 1275 Engine and rib-case trans are obvious, along with the wire wheels. What other parts may be used from a Spridget? And where to find original dimension drawings so it all looks right when done? This has to follow on after my current 442/Kent 1600 build. But I need to plan now so that I keep the correct parts on hand.

I see a wire brush, spray cleaner, and chalk in my immediate futire. Clean and high-light casting numbers.

Wish to identify my 4 Spd transmission, ex 1990 Westfield with Kent 1600 I have no idea how to identify this transmission. I know what it came out of but not what it was originally built for. I will be putting it into a "Locost" 442. Hoping to find an aluminum bell housing for it to shed a few pounds. What should I be looking for, casting numbers? If so, where located?

Yes I am near Dayton. Sorting parts today, trying to raise funds to buy the OP's 711M engine.

Silly question, dual SU manifolds available for the Kent?

Building a "Locost" 442 and trying to make it as traditional as practical. Looked at a lot of engines and got an ear-full of advice to put in a Mazzzda or similar, preferably with all the complications such as turbo, FI, and VVT. When I found a complete Kent 1600 with twin Webers and transmission I did not hesitate and grabbed it.

711M engine still available? Includes? Pics? Any sort of transmission available to go with it? Found your post crossed to the Locost forum. I know about what shipping can be done for.
