Laurence Wilson Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 My Ford Kent engine Seven is being converted to Honda Blackbird power 😬 All the bits I no longer need will be listed on eBay and I intend to keep this post up to date with what is currently for sale. If it's of use to anyone considering a BEC conversion themselves, I'll allow it to turn into an archive of what you can expect to get for the parts you're replacing, too. If there is a specific part you require that you think I might be about to remove, contact me by Blatmail and I'll see if I can help Waiting To eBay 1 Ital Rear Axle — Supplied by Caterham with a 3.64 final drive ratio, according to the manual. It has 22,000+ miles on it but has only ever been subjected to a single DGV carb'd Kent and Michelins. £250 or offers. 1 4-1 Competition Exhaust Manifold and Silencer for Crossflow — Has a dent on the underside of one of the primaries and the can has some scuffs, too. I had this polished a couple years ago so it looks shiny, at least! £150 or offers. Under The Hammer None Sold 1 1600 GT Sprint Bonnet for £32.45 2 Bilstein Front Shock Absorbers with Springs for £50.00 1 Long Cockpit Bench Seat Complete for £60.00 1 Mountney Steering Wheel with Boss for £35.00 Edited by - Laurence Wilson on 25 Feb 2012 18:00:52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blade Runner Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Does the axle have disc's? if so can I have first dib's? Edited by - Trevor A on 27 Feb 2012 09:02:08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurence Wilson Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 Trevor: No, I'm afraid it has drums. But I'm working on a disc conversion for my own car for the English that uses Peugeot calipers, floating rotors and aluminium bells. If there's a market for it, I could be persuaded to do something for the Ital, too. Feel free to Blatmail me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
