Being a machinest i took the old shaft out and turned down the end, I then made a new bearing to suit. I didnt find a new one, but then i didnt look very hard :p Think your best bet might be to have a look on craddocks if your after a new blot on job hope this helps Ryan

It all depends on what shocks you have got, the standard series oil shocks should do that yes, they are only a damper to stop you springing around all over the place. Where as some other shocks do provide a little spring return. Hope this helps

Alright mate, been a while since I have been on here, still having trouble with manifolds? Im in the same boat really, I have left doing the manifolds for the time being tho. I have got the original cast ones to fit, I know they are pants but it will get it road worthy for the time being...

If it was me I would get down my local tyre place, I had a slow puncher the other week, the guy checked the wheel and tyre out. He found a small nail in the centre for the tyre. He then plugged the tyre and re balanced it for me, in all cost 11 quid...... job done.

No Worries, I'll have a hunt for them pics later and post them. One thing i Will say about fitting the V8 in a series 2 is that it is really tight, the rad sitting that far back in the engine bay does cause some problems, u'll have to watch out for the water pump pully fouling on the rad. I've...

Pics of the v8 conversion:
