There's nothing quite like an early Sunday morning drive in the Healey, with your gorgeous lady in the passenger seat. Cruising with 4,000 rpm on the tachometer, 70mph on the speedo, (note to self -

Ok Rich. You got me. One of those numbers is clearly wrong..... ;-) But I know it was 5,800 rpm in direct top after I passed the clown in the 5.7 v8, when flicked back into overdrive.... I'm sure tha

OK--at the risk of POing someone, let me just say--I'm a skeptic here. I live in Western Pa with many hills. I also have an E-Type. Although my Healey pulls these hills nicely, it is not as agressive

The Moss box was only on the very first ones--changed to all-syncro in late 64 - early 65. There's one thing to win a drag race--quite another to press the big numbers. Heck--you can put a 427 in a g

Oh, once I get the S1 E-Type into gear it leaves everything in the dust. It's an open road car. The BJ8 is better in the tight roads, the 100 is the best for the curvy stuff. The A90 is best on a str
