Cheers to all who have replied on the list & directly - you have all been most helpful!

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <002c01d69f4c$1201d850$360588f0$@bluefrog.com> I see a #10 UNF x ?? listed with the valve but not sure if that is correct. Sunbeam Parts Lists are available online. Check the OD of the threads ? a table I have indicates #10 UNF 24 TPI OD = .190? For British cars you need UNF tap and dies ? SAE tap and dies will cut metal because they are slightly different. If you have extra bolts ? I like to cut grooves down the threads to make a thread chaser to clean out the threads. For any stuck bolts use penetrating oil or ATF, let them soak overnight if needed.

So I thought I'd bring it up: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1966-sunbeam-tiger-race-car/ I note that one of the commenters says that for $55,000 someone can buy a Monterey race ready Tiger. I know that some race cars from 60s sports cars are less than their high end car show brothers. But $55? We're restoring a 1962 Elva MkVI right now with full sights on Monterey. So both historically accurate, immaculate as can be, but 100% full race ready - every part as strong and straight as should be.

Some in the Ap/Bp class spend over $50K for one competitive legal 289 SFB race engine. (not me) (And it?s always nice to have a spare.) This ?Bp? class is for production cars. In the past the Monster has been allowed to run in it. Other prototypes have run in it as well when their performance matches the ?Bp? class better than those in the official prototype class. But that was in the past. I have no idea what the future will be with the new changes at Laguna Seca. One thing that?s for sure ? The ?Monster? is one awesome machine!

My first Centerforce clutch was good for 300 ft lbs; the second was good for 400 ft lb. ( my engine was now showing 349ft lbs at the crank.)
