I've seen pictures that show lowback seats (no headrest) in UK (or Euro) MkIV Spitfires. I assume they didn't use the MkIV tonneau with headrest pockets that was used here in the US - did those cars

Yes, it fits under an unmodified GT6 Mk3 bonnet. The engine picture shows by how much if you focus on the grey foam air dam at the very top of the engine - as little as an inch just forward of the c

A GT6 coil puts out 6 pulses every two crankshaft revolutions (one complete intake-compression-power-exhaust cycle) or three pulses every revolution, right? And the Smiths tach receives those pulses

I always start with POR-15 or Corroless on previously rusted places because I'm never sure all the rust is gone, and that stuff will contain it. Primer next, then paint. Mike Renton, WA -- Mike Rento

The thing I liked about it (aside from the assist in lifting) was that it equalizes to a certain extent the lifting force on both sides (similar in effect to having an involved passenger on the far s

MSD and Crane both make multiple-spark systems - each time the distributor gets to a new plugwire, it sends out a series of sparks (10-20, depending upon conditions and model) instead of one under th

The Crane has three modes compared to MSD's two, but you're essentially correct. I suppose you'd prefer they change the MSD name to Multiple Spark When A Miss Would Be Most Noticeable, Big Fat Spark
