I had a full rimmers system on my rrc, but they're utter ****e and when the centre box fell apart I put a straight through pipe with a very small cherry bomb in it to stop it booming. It sounded great and not too loud for the motorway etc. However, when the 4.6 went in, it was unbelievably...

Great, thanks :-)

Hi stutab, I haven't had chance to measure mine yet so if you could check the bore diameter to confirm for me that would be great, thanks :-)

Doh, never thought of measuring the outside to work it out <feels a little stupid> thanks :-)

Bit of a long shot, but does anyone happen to know the internal diameter of the heater hoses that go on the bulkhead connections on a hard dash petrol classic with no aircon please? I need to re-plumb my LPG vapouriser in series with some standard hose and elbows and could do with getting...

Best to go and try some at mothercare, I had trouble with a couple not fitting well in my dad's p38. In my classic I have an isofix base secured via the seatbelt for the baby seat and a maxi cosi seat for my 2 year old which is good, but one if the new models which swivels sideways for...

:-)

Have a look on my mate's website www.twentytenengineering.co.uk and in the gallery there are a couple of pics of his old bobtails with P38 alloys on and a 2 door with predators. Also if you search for twentytenengineering on YouTube there are some clips with a 4 door with predators on. I think...

This is a pic of what it was like just after the 4.6 went in. It looks a bit different now as I have the LPG kit back in, but running with a Blos LPG carb. The 4.6 was lightened and balanced, mid-valves, semi-ported heads, rhodes lifters, John Eales 2665 cam and a Mark Adams Tornado chip to...

Swapped my LPG vapouriser coolant hoses round and fixed my heater issue at last!!! Also managed to give her a good wash now the roads are finally getting back to normal :-)

Got any pics? I would be interested to see how it looks. I've done a bit on my 4.6 in my classic, powdercoated plenum, silicone hoses, alloy coolant and power steering reservoirs.

They're not designed to last 20 years as they want people to keep upgrading to newer models! My classic definitely wasn't or I wouldn't have to fix it every flamin week :-)

The mrs and I both work at JLR and we were lucky enough to have a L405 for a day a while ago. I already loved the look of it inside and out, but taking it on mixed roads for the day from where we live out through the Cotswolds, we got to really appreciate how great it is to drive. I had driven...

The problem I had at the time was that my sides were rotten in very awkward places so weren't easily repairable. There were various places advertising the panels required, but they were all coming from the same factory that a friend of mine is in contact with directly. At the time nobody had the...

It was the 84L single hole vert toroidal from here (3 items from the bottom): Tinley Tech Limited Tanks - single-hole I think it came to around the £400 mark in the end by the time I'd bought all of the pipework and fittings. I fitted this tank as my under-sill tanks had passed the 10 year...

I've had various parts fromYRM, so has my father in law and they have all been decent, I would definitely recommend them. One thing to bear in mind though, their parts aren't painted or anything so I took what I could to the galvanisers and then to the powdercoaters to give them s the best...

I'm with you on doing the job only once. I took a lot of my parts and had them galvanised before fitting, then I zinc prime them before using multi coats of chassis paint, then coat it all with some factory underseal to try and give it s the best start possible :-) If you pm me your email...

Finished fitting my new vertical toroidal LPG tank in my classic, back on gas again at last :-)

Not sure about the disco kit, but yrm metal solutions do some of the parts, and 2nd hand rangey floor's come up on eBay quite often I was lucky enough to pick up some vgc 2 door floor sides with the arches too that we managed to get to fit my 4 door, but it was a bit of a job as we had to cut...

Galvanising is approx 10 times thicker than zintec and i tend to try and give things as much protection as I can get when i'm doing jobs on my RRC nowadays so that I don't have to come back and do them again any time soon. I know a zintec coated part should still last a long time, but if it's...
