Spitfire2500 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 As per subject - on the lookout for an anti-roll bar and the correct engine cross member for a 1976 2000TC.Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire2500 Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 OK - Wins have anti-roll bars in stock so are sending one out to me but I'm not having much luck tracking down an engine cross member.So, if anyone has an ARB engine cross-member (TKC1940) as fitted to late cars (75-77) I will gladly relieve you of it for a few goodies of your choice ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TedTaylor Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 And presumably you thought for 5 seconds and decided 'Cheeky sod ..... :P" I'll exchange for the Weber settings though :). While I want to use Webers (eventually) on a 2000, the 2500 jets/choke/emulsion tube etc. info would give me a starting point unless anyone else has the proper 2000 info.MUT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire2500 Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 Ted,FWIW the settings I have noted for the Webers are:Choke - 33Aux Vent - 4.5Emulsion Tube - F16Main Jet - 125Air Jet - 185Idler Jet - 50F9Pump - 40Back Bleed - 0But note that these are for the Sprint 90 camshaft we have fitted - which is a pretty peaky affair to be honest - comes on at 3.5k ??) It is very nippy when it gets going :)For something a bit closer to a standard 2.5 I have the following noted as a starting point:Choke - 28Aux Vent - 4.5Emulsion Tube - F16Main Jet - 120Air Jet - 175Idler Jet - 50F9Pump - 35Back Bleed - 0Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigT-DK Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 What about welding a pair of brackets to the existing crossmember ? I have an ARB Crossmember which hasn't been fitted yet I could measure for you.. (I am in Denmark so measurements would be metric :P) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire2500 Posted November 28, 2013 Author Share Posted November 28, 2013 Appreciate the offer - but thanks to Ted Taylor an ARB crossmember will be with me next week.It's the earlier type but it should easy enough to re-drill it for the correct offset.Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Bill,I have a cross member tucked away somewhere in the shed, will have a look-not sure if arb type though.Reckon Doug Thompson, James Shackford or Dave Harvey will have them though?

Spitfire2500 Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 Cheers Tim.As noted above Ted is sending me an early ARB engine crossmember which I should be able to modify but if anyone unearths a late type ARB engine crossmember that they no longer need please let me know.
