I'm a scientist type (acoustics/geophysics/seismologist) and agree with you about actually *measuring* something. I never believe what I read and often have to try things myself, sometimes discoverin

I bookmarked the site below and it seems relevant to this discussion so thought I'd share it. Probably one of the ones Carl read about in fact. I'll let you all read it and come to your own conclusi

I've been searching for a bit now for a source of Bosch injectors for the TR7/TR8/Rover 3500. Victoria British and Moss sell an aftermarket injector. Haven't tried Roadster Factory actually. Been als

Oh NO! Not another discussion about which oil to use in the Rover V8... Yup. Sorry. At least I've got a very specific question though... I've been a fan of Mobil 1 since I first tried it in an old 74
