Subject: Nomination & Question for a friend
This is twofold;
FOT NOMINATION:
First I would like to present Bill Rampe from the Rochester, NY area for
membership to the great unwashed and get him added to the list. Bill races a
Spitfire and has recently upgraded to an FE engine from a FC (thatbs
Spitfire talk for more power!). Bill is good people and can always be seen
with a grin from ear to ear after a good ride. Many of us have spent time
with him at Mosport; Watkins Glen and Summit Point.
So, if I can get a second on this we can include him in our ranks and prattle.
An honor to call him friend!
--------
Second is a question I pose on Billbs behalf. He had a flywheel failure at
The Jefferson 500 where it sounds as though the center of the aluminum
flywheel broke apart. He has a new b Fidenzab aluminum flywheel on the
shelf and is wondering if anyone has any experience with them before he uses
it on his rebuild. I have used Tiltons in the past and also uprated the
attachment to eight socket head cap screws. Any input out there from those
racing. Webre not talking street car stuff here please. Huge differences
between a 4000rpm street ride and an 8000rpm race engine!
Thanks from Bill (wmrampe@yahoo.com)
