How did you do it?

OK, try this one:https://bighugelabs.com/order-status.php?oid=249295756-82e8&button=statusClick on the order reprints link.

Problem fixed. And didn’t need the extenders.

Royal,I am in the process of selling an appt building i own.If the sale goes through it will free up alot of money and i should be able to do alot with this car and possibley buy a vintage Benz.If all happens as i hope i plan on coming to Carlisle and maybe we will do just that .I would love to meet all of you.As you  probaby know i’am not…[Read more]

Greg, – my 2c worth follows.  Sorry, but I have to say that I think you are approaching this problem from the wrong direction. You have an engine heat problem.  You have said that you have some/all missing tin.  I really don’t know whether or not your engine is in a good state of tune.

Tex , Yes i had read it before and yes i reread it.It fits my problem to a tee every last word.I carry a bottle of water under front trunk and i am going to get reflective heat tape  for fuel lines .I also moved the fuel filter.If i dont find a tin i am going put a muffler heat shield in this winter. Thanks               

Roy,I should be able to get you a measurement in the next day or do – car covered for the winter and all – I have twin Kadrons w/ cone style air cleaners. Hopefully you can make something fit.

Greg you may have already read this but in case you haven’t.

OK, I emailed the BigHugeLabs dude just like last year. For sure he’ll send us a link, but a word on his contact page says they’re on vacation until Dec 3 or so. Which means we’ll be seeing a reply email with a link maybe next week.Sorry for the delay.

Couldn’t figure out how to get a reprint of that calendar.  There’s nothing on their pages directing me to get a print of a calendar that was already created.  I’ll keep checking.

Thanks Ed, that is what I am hoping for.  

Ordered it. Reprints might be available here.http://bighugelabs.com/cart.php?msg=The+items+from+your+previous+order+have+been+added.Please see if it works for you & let me know if there’s trouble. As I recall, there is usually trouble until I figure out how to share this link.

OK, hearing nothing further I’m going to set up the calendar.

OK, tried it again asking for a 100 c.i. engine & it’s no good for that either.Roy, I’m going way out on a limb here and advising you: go with two little one-bbls if they’ll fit. Don’t mess with Webers & stuff on a little engine like that. Instead, buy a small carb kit with manifolds and a set of small ratio rockers. Spend money on the rocker arm…[Read more]

Wow. I tried that selector for a 2.2 Subie and crapped out every time. Just doesn’t have anything. But I know a guy in Canada put a Subie in his Speedster with a progressive Holley/Weber and it does great–30+ mpg, strong acceleration and smooth startup. 

Moneypenny is progressing nicely. Now if Santa will be nice and put the carpet kit on sale for Christmas. Low tonight…27. That’s pretty cold for GA. Tomorrow’s high is 72. Go figure! But I will be driving my TD in the near future.newkitman2012-11-24 22:48:39

Pulled the carb, replaced a gasket, installed a new fuel filter, tightened the clamps on every gas line I could get my hands on  — and finally, FINALLY, got the Lafer to run again. A little chilly here (comparatively speaking, for those of you in northern climes) but sunny and great for a 40-minute top-down shakeout run while my wife and older…[Read more]

Yep! I paid less than that asking price for my unbuilt kit. Then had to find a chassis. Got a steal on the chassis. Go choice to let it go. Keep looking…you’ll find one out there that’s calling your name.

Hey thanks for the confirmation Bill. Where are you getting these specs from? They’re really handy.
