Hi Paul,

My GT6 mk3 has had a fairly recent engine rebuild with gearbox
(unfortunately no o/d), however it does about 55 mph at 3000rpm, not
sure if this is OK or not.

However, I too have a similar problem with the heater though, managed
to get the damn levers working with huge quantities of WD40, although
I'm not sure how it's 'sposed to work.  The windscreen vents blow hot
air almost all the time when the heater is on, but the dash-vents seem
to be either cold or almost warmish.

If there is a way of solving this, I'd like to know as well !

Cheerio
