If they are authentic tripod 700s, or a faithful reproduction, they take what's known as a P45 or type A base; that's not the same as an H4 base. You used to be able to buy a halogen capsule on a P45

One of the famous Mark Donohue "Unfair Advantage" stories is about looking for extra power from a flat-12 Ferrari racing engine, maybe this is the Sunoco 512. One of the things they found when they w

I'd say "it depends" - on what you intend to use this workbench for. For a general purpose bench, my favorite design so far is based on a 2x4 or 2x6 frame, with plywood or butcher block over the top

I'm pretty sure that's Aqua-Lube, which is good for quieting synthetic suspension bushings, too. I've also used Red Line synthetic grease for the rack (and the guts of the motor). ** triumphs@autox.

That's interesting - do you have a specific regulator in mind? The biggest problem I have with the stock dynamo is that the voltage wanders a lot, and that affects electronics (particularly the elect

You're on the right track, but not quite right. The first time I saw this system explained was in TRF's TR250 manual. HU is a "set screw" - fully threaded. HB is a "bolt" - partially threaded. HN is
