I have seen it...once. Many years ago I looked at a fascinating Spitfire that had A/C, as well as a few other very unusual goodies. Didn't realize how special the car was. Foolishly, I passed on it a

Straight 50 weight motor oil is pretty darned thick. Normally I see recommendations for 30 weight. I'm personally running a 10-30 in my J type. As Joe mentioned, some gold colored metals degrade fast

Like Joe said, velocity stacks can work, but often times do not, depending on design. Dave Vizzard has some excellent articles on them in several of his books. Basically, as a rule of thumb, the more

I have no special knowledge of the Japanese car/truck alternators. They are almost all made by Nipondenso, are internally regulated, and are basically generic, like the Delco 10Si alternator is. Slig

Yes, it can be done. I did it on my 1980 Spitfire. The rears are a simple bolt on. For the front, you've got two flavors for the approach. Technique one is to simply cut a notch in the big brace piec
