Hi John V, Thanks for the tip off.

BTTT Thanks John, still looking. Phil

Hi John, Thanks for the reply, sorry for the delay forgot to set the alert me. Actually its for widetrack S3, but could you measure it up as it be possible to make up some extenders for the ends. Phil

Hi, Per title, I'm looking for an orange 1/2" ARB for widetrack, as I want to try something softer than my current set up. Thanks, Phil

Delbert, I'm intrigued, what are you building please? Phil

Hi Melvin, I have a red ARB which came off my imperial chassis with standard track wishbones when I upgrade to wide track. If a narrow/standard track bar is what you need I can help, if you're not sure I'll need to dig it out of the shed to measure it. Not sure if it still has balls on, is there a without balls dimension just in case? Where are you based? I'm in Sussex near Gatwick Phil

Hi Paul, I'll take some pics this evening and email over. Phil

Hi Roger, As far as I know they are standard stays for 13" wheels. My 185/70 tyres are a close fit,if that helps. Happy to measure them if you can tell me what the critical dimensions are. Phil

Need to clear out the shed after last year's rebuild. 4off Minator 6 x 13 Ital pcd, silver. Currently with 185/70 13 A021 (3-4mm tread) £150 ono. Straight, no curbing marks, but paint not pretty. Can get tyres removed if not wanted. currently dibs with Matthew W. Pair front wings bonded onto stays, Post Office red paint. Wings and stays sound but stays could do with rub down and repaint. £30 pair. currently dibs with Matthew W. All parts in sunny Sussex, prefer collect, or may be able to bring to Surrey/Sussex/Kent meets. BM for pics.

Thanks V-E, Called Andy, he uses Toat Hill Garage, so I'll give them a try unless there are any other suggestions. Phil

Hi, My usual moT station in Billingshurst has changed owners and when I took daughters' car in I didn't recognise any of the mechanics either, so looking for 7 friendly moT station in the Horsham/Gatwick area. Any suggestions? Phil

Hi Craig, I used a foam filter from a UK company called RamAir. I wanted something to fit over my Jenvey TBs and within the standard bonnet cutout for the old crossflow. At the time they didn't have a pre-cut backplate so I bought a blank and cut it to suit. Not sure if this item would be a direct fit, but the filter itself is the same size as the one I used. If I recall correctly I had to slightly offset the backplate rearwards so that the front edge just brushed the inside of the cutout. http://ramair-filters.co.uk/rt-carb-filters/caterham-ford-kent-weber-dcoe-twin-carburettor-bolt-on-air-filter.html Phil

Craig, You don't need a lambda probe to run an Omex 600 and TBs. But you do need the boss for one to be fitted when it gets mapped. Phil

Craig, The Omex 600 can only work with a narrow band lambda. There is a page in Map3000 where you can set the maximum trim authority that it can exercise. The settings you can adjust are revs below which it will trim, engine load % (TPS) below which it will trim and max % fuel trim (injector pulse duration). When the Steve's mapped my car they used their Wideband probe. They then put my narrowband probe in and set the authority so that it trims to achieve lambda 1.0 up to motorway cruising speeds (3500rpm around 30% throttle and max 15% fuel trim) if I remember correctly. So the lambda trim only operates when I am cruising the motorway, bimbling through town or at MoT time (even though I am visible smoke only). This set up helps me get up to 40mpg on longer runs, but doesn't stop the grin when blatting 🥰 Phil
