jbcollier Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 I went through everything. The main hold up was the engine. Had to get valve pockets cut in the pistons (clayed the heads to find 0.1mm between the exhaust valve and piston). Seems to have quite the lumpy cam — thus the lack of clearance. Few more jobs and it is off to the sunset I go… https://jbcollier.smugmug.com/Lotus-Seven-S3/i-F37JNLZ https://jbcollier.smugmug.com/Lotus-Seven-S3/i-HmxhX3m 2
MV8 Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 Nice car. Great detail pics too. I like your choice of muffler. Curious about the pipe size. Do you remember the part number or application? Looks stainless. Seems fairly quiet with no pipe behind it. I compiled these last year for general spec comparison but none are stainless.
jbcollier Posted June 20, 2023 Author Posted June 20, 2023 It's a MagnaFlow 1 3/4" in and out. Yes, it is SS. The header is mild-steel and ceramic coated. I'm just about to bend up a mild-steel tailpipe. That will quieten it right down -- which I like, my boy racer days are long over..
jbcollier Posted June 20, 2023 Author Posted June 20, 2023 That belongs to the chap I bought it from. I do have a bunch of scooters and motorbikes as well.
bball7754 Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 Looks great, and love the Pirelli Cinturato CN36 tires!
