I'm a little confused here. Miles was a Shelby American employee and worked on development for Shelby. Does this mean that Shelby had two Tiger development teams? Shelby wasn't that much of a nuts a

You could even get center lock American Mags for a Cobra. There's a picture of John and Paul Nygaards Cobra with a set on the SOL archives. csx2577.gif. This picture was taken in 1964. I had to brig

A few months back there was an extended discussion on the british-cars list about whether or not is was possible for coolant flow to be too high to allow sufficient time for it to be cooled in the r

I believe a similar comment was made on the the Brit car list, and the response was that the problem was cavitation, not rate of flow and that the restriction improved cooling by reducing cavitation

I agree, excellent book. Brownell also suggests using trisodium phosphate in place of lye. I've tried both solution, heated over a camp stove. Both do a good job of cleaning oil/grease and stripping

Absolutely agree with you Tom. I wouldn't use it on copper or brass either. Peronally I prefer TSP to NaOH anyway, for the reasons you state regarding handling. I've used "mag" wheel cleaner on alum

I was thinking bamboo. It's really tough, stands up well to the weather (all the nurseries around here use bamboo poles as planter stakes) and you would have the added benefit of built hand holds. R
