Re: Aftermarket heat exchangers

Thanks for the video link πŸ‘πŸ» Would you recommend sealing the gaps or will it perform just as well without ? When you say wiggle room are you talking about when you have to re-attach the tinware to the heat exchanger outer skin ? If I welded the outer skin gaps to the inner exhaust pipes would that b...

Aftermarket heat exchangers

Looking to replace my rusted out heat exchangers, looking at the aftermarket ones , the tinware doesn't seem to be completely sealed around the exhaust header pipes. Is this normal, I imagine there's heat loss bit not sure of enough to be an issue . Has anyone sealed them by welding or otherwise ?

Has anyone used Castrol Transmax EP 80w (mineral) in their 4 speed gearbox and if so was it ok ? Not sure whether to go down the 80w90 semi synthetic route.... πŸ™„

High top removal

So thinking of removing the high top on my '83 T25......other than sourcing a used roof skin and welding in place, does anyone supply a flat low profile roof skin in GRP that could be fitted over the remaining stripped roof ? Don't really want to go down the pop top route.
Cheers

Re: IGNITION COIL ADVICE>>>beru zs 106 ignition coil........help

another question which may help, if you upgrade from points to electronic ignition do you have to change the coil? if not then my points coil would be ok, does a higher resistance coil produce a weaker spark ??
