is there any experience with header length? My Phoenix exhaust has as average pipe length from head to collector 85 cm = 33.46". Is that value doing well with a 310 degree camshaft? Cheers Chris ___

Hello Gents, I have a TR4 engine that is leaking oil, which I am guessing is from the split ring/oil seal on the crank. I have purchased a new split ring/oil seal which I want to install. The engine

Seems like we are asking more and more from these engines and are using lubricants that find their way out of every seam and orifice. My choice is the best possible sealing and a vacuum system. This

Good Morning Henry, Seems like you draw attention to an important issue about a 'closed system' relative to the use of the vacuum system. (yes we run a closed system) What do mean by a shoddy build?

Back to your rear seal issue - one thing that was pointed out on the list a year or so ago that I did with my last rebuild is to drill additional drain holes through the rear main. I drilled them par

It seems like you could run a catch tank along with the vacuum system - run the line from the engine to the catch tank and the vent from the catch tank to the exhaust. Catch tank would need to not be
