It's back for me now too. :)
Hi all
anyone else not able to access the 289 Register?
It was OK earlier on.
Hi Brian and welcome.
There are a number of guys on here with Viper style Cobras.
I'm sure someone will be along shortly with some wisdom.
As said previously you don't need the engine no. on the chassis or chassis VIN plate.
The engine no. is often stamped on the machined face of the block (if it hasn't been skimmed off previously)....
Not so quiet roads if you're hooning about LOL! :D
Another vote for Torques or Hose Fittings UK
Both on eBay and offer fast delivery.
PTFE tape works in most situations.
The IRS inboard handbrake can be made to work.
All good advise above.
As for comfort, you change to an Aston Martin handbrake lever (if you can find one).
It's a straight swap for the really sharp...
They test the braking force front , back and handbrake on the rollers.
Then they do calculations based on the design weights you have provided.
They also ask you to drive the car around the test...
I've built three Cobras with Jaguar brakes.
All three have required a pressure reducing valve to the rear circuit.
Don't forget if you have to go through IVA you cannot use an adjustable valve....

Last chap I spoke to was working from home and...
From personal experience I've always found that 45 degree boots at the plug end are correct for most small block Fords.
90 degree at the dizzy cap male or female depending on your cap.

Hi Sean,
me and my gang always stay on Litchlake.
Great location for walking back in for the concerts etc. ( assuming a little libation maybe partaken).
Book in advance online it's a bit cheaper....
If you removed the dizzy cap, did you remove the leads from the the cap too?
You might have simply mixed up the leads?
Double check your leads against the firing order and correct rotation.
Have...
Yes, I was there for Santana.
The stage was in a different area then too.
Also remember how bad Jedwood were.
Even Rick Parfitt Jr. was taking the pee when he followed them.
Wow! impressive speed from DVLA.
Oh! yes that's for sure Gary.
Ha Ha!
Where's the like button when you need it?
Hi Tony,
Is it easier to remove the seats and cut a hatch in the rear firewall.
I did that on a Dax.
Come on Mathew!
You know these things are never finished. :D
Well done, the first start is always a great moment.
Hi George don't adjust too much play out of your slave cylinder rod.
You need a few mm of clearance or you will end up with a burned release bearing and a knackered clutch.
Post a picture of your...
Oh! well done indeed Gary.
You deserve it after all your fabulous hard work.
Hopefully I'm not too far behind you.
