Looks more like MG Midget to me...check the lower fender line behind the front wheel.

Whoa is that a sunbeam tiger behind that hi pinion 44?

62 Austin Healey Sprite

 

[UpnAdam]

Throw a big block in that biatch! lol

 

[Bent77]

4.10 hi pinion gear and series 4 powr lok installed. Gear set didn't want to be set up today...

Addressed some steering malfeasance and took measurements for the limit strap and bump stop.

Found a couple minor malfunctions to fix

So Im updating the first page index with hyperlinks to the page.
If there are things you all want better pictures or explanations of, let me know and I will update the earlier posts to be better detailed.

Something I've been wondering, does changing the thread title mess up links to it?

No, it links to the server location not the text, which is good.

Hey but I use them so

It would knock like mad. When it had the carb it would diesel on 87 with 14° lead.

It gets better mileage on 91

Been thinking about this since our "discussion" here in the thread. Trying to decide if I could swallow spending an extra $17/fill-up.

Spread sheet it, see what the fuel cost per mile is using 87 and 91. Do 3 tanks each
Last time I did that, the cost/mile was almost the same, but the truck ran better.

How much difference in MPG you notice?

I don't remember exactly now, but I remember it was more than 1 MPG. I'm sure the fuel is different now, and the differences in the trucks certainly warrant an actual test

 

[mrk5]

Except once you bump compression, aren't you kinda stuck with it?

 

[Bent77]

You get over 10, I'd say yes. But I wouldn't drop an engine in anything less than 9.5:1, you're giving up to much power

 

[Bent77]

Acetylene, the original hole saw

 

[UpnAdam]

Noice! That takes a steady hand, did you use a guide of some sort or free hand it?

 

[Bent77]

Nah free hand. First and last round circle ever

 

[Bent77]

6011 overhead, cuz welding greasy crap isn't fun enough to start with.

Point if the skid is not to protect the 205, but the adapter to the trans. The spot hole is for the trans mount access

 

[Babaganoosh]

that reminds me I should put the skid plate on my truck...
