Cheers Colin Colin, I have a friend who has been looking for ages now, however with such short notice I am not sure if he can get the time off work. Ill give him a bell and ask. He is mature and no boy racer. Rob

    If you have got stuff left to do one of them is the spares list. List closed soon and less than 30 days until the run. Please get a move on with the list guys. Rob

    Doug, remember pics of the conversion and then tales of how easy it was to encourage others to go EDIS.  ;) Rob

    My Vitesse is fitted with AVO adjustable shocks front and rear. They seem to work well. The suspension is not standard, with 440lb springs on the front which are 1" shorter/lower than normal (sourced from Jigsaw). The rear spring is standard with a 1" lowering block. From memory, the AVO shocks have 17 settings from soft to firm. Adjustment is via a knurled knob. When I bought the car, the front was set to 8 and the rear 6. After experimenting, I have front set to 4 (from soft) and rear to 3 (again, from soft). The other part of the equation is 175/65x13 tyres running at 26F/28R pressure.

    [quote=thescrapman]Rob I think the last set Gaz sold have yet to be collected, perhaps not even paid for so perhaps there is scope for some gazumping... :-) [quote] If only, Gaz if he backs out give me a shout Rob

Any later and it's like you say, very busy and very slow. If it is busy just back everyone up behind you by crawling down to Mirabeau and then you can blast round Loews and Portier and through the tunnel. There does not seem to be any cameras about - or I didn't see any anyway... its a plan, lets get there early :)

    in all the years I ran carbs I have never had a pin hole in the floats in fact I have never had a problem with any floats of any carbs. (I must be very lucky) I have had flooding carbs though, it normally comes when the car has not been run for a few weeks or months and I found the fuel had evaporated and left a sticky residue on the needle valve. A quick clean of the needle valve and when its in plate a few taps with my finger to the bottom of the valve to seat the valve on the carb usually sorts the problem. As Gaz says too much pressure can cause a problem but normal psi from a basic pump won't do it, a electric pump needs a regulator. If you want one I have one.
