I think I'd like to keep the torque as low as you can, to much torque low down ruins gearboxes and drive shafts, I seem to remember I had a really flat torque curve and only 365lb ft, but 434bhp.

I use a Renault 5 one that actually goes in the top hose.
No new projects :(
Unfortunately, due to health issues, the T-10 is moving on to pastures new

Hundreds of them on ebay, just look for silicone hose joiner reducer, something like this....
Lol, I didn't think there were any Supercharged ones in America, although I do believe there is a turbo and supercharged one somewhere in the UK ;)
You could polish and port the head on yours, but...
Have you got any links to the ones that have been supercharged in America? as for a kit, no there isn't. You would have to ditch the aircon, fit T5 injectors, an intercooler and you could probably...
You'll need the sump off a 6 cylinder white block and cut a chunk out of the middle and you'll need an M90 gearbox as well as everything off the T5.
people who know me, know I like to live dangerously when it comes to latching bonnets :D
It's been a long time since I've been up to working on the car, so I thought I'd ease myself back into it by hacking the front off :D

It just wouldn't be an economical preposition, you would need to upgrade the suspension and brakes as well, I would expect that you could sell your car and buy a T5 for half the cost of doing an...

You still need to either fit a blanking plate, or a one way valve into the recirc vac line.
I'm very interested in this as I was lead to beleive that it was really hard to get the Jag V8 to work in any other car, I can't remember the reason at the moment. Something to do with the engine not...
Any 850 or early 70 series manual master cylinder will be the same, there's nothing special about an 850R one
if the bar can rotate, then it can also move from side to side (which would be a big no no) so unless the arb has some positive way of stopping side to side movement then then the bar should not be...
The whole point is to have the lube only to help fitment, arb bushes are not supposed to allow rotation unless they have a washer welded onto the arb to stop lateral movement.
££££, no, never use coppaslip, only use the lube that came with the bushes or washing up liquid.
That's fine, you asked for advice, advice was given, what you do with it is up to you, it's an unfortunate thing, but forums are becoming a thing of the past unfortunately :( and FB is the new source...
