Looking good Trav.

Good to see you have still got her.

Yeah still got her mate. I drive her everyday to work. After selling the shell i had a few parts stored away which are now proud on the more door, the shape has really grown on me now.
Here's one of the bay.

The pic does not do the engine bay justice.
It looks much better in person.

Cheers, Richo

Hi mate the cap on this rocker cover is a speedflow item that you cam buy. It includes the filler neck which needs to be welded on.

Cheers Trav, i'll have a look. So needing to be welded on i'm assuming the filler neck is alloy too. I do have a filler neck on there already, which fits a standard slip in cap, are these ones similar to a radiator cap where they twist and lock?.


Cheers, Richo.

Sorry mate just had a look and have seen they are a threaded item, Will buy on soon.

No worries, note that an oil shield below the filler is advised. Mine does not seem to have one which makes it leak a bit. Might be the weld though I'm not sure.

The filler neck i have in mine at the moment, as i said previous, is for a slip in cap and from memory is welded underneath and sealed with a silicone at the top and have never really had a drama with leaking. but i'll keep the shield in mind.

Nope I like the round setup better. I take it you don't want the buckets etc?

Found some more pics from when i gave the carbs a clean, fitted the ram tubes, new linkage and the Revotec gauges.

Where did you get the gauges from?
2011/06/26 20:35:49
T_Mark
The gauges are from Burton. They fit really well in place of the originals. I don't think revotec do them in black anymore though. I wanted to eventually get fuel and temp to match.

If so, where did you get it done and approx how much? I am thinking of doing this too.

Won't go to well with those tissues stuffed in the ram tubes. [:p]

Are these the gauges - 80mm? http://www.revotec.com/Gauges80-100_Black1.htm

They look great.
2011/06/28 15:16:31
T_Mark
Yep that's them, 80mm.
