Hi, I'm restoring a 109SW 2a with a 3 litre P5 6 cyl fitted. The rocker cover has the rocker cover breather at the bulkhead end. If you look past the old wiring you will see that at the bulkhead end of the rocker cover is the hole covered by tape and an old rubber glove. This is for an engine...

Hello, I'm trying to reduce the resistance in the LR which I feel will be reducing mpg and working the engine a bit harder. I have adjusted the brakes on the rear axle so there is little resistance from the brakes (can't quite seem to get none) and also tried to do the fronts. The front...

Just thinking about more road biased tyres if I can find some at a bargain price. I get more choice from modern sizes and wonder if a 235/85 is the right choice and whether they stay legally wthin the lines of the standard wings? Anyone got any pics of 235/85's on LWB rims on an S1...
