With some of the fuels they used to run in speedway, that sort of compression may of been realistic. I can't remember what it was now, but an old speedway racer was saying he had to add castor oil into his fuel or it would wear out his rings in a meeting.....

Looks like a normal grill to me http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=11224

I would go body colour for the vents or what ever you paint the grill and light surrounds like this

Had a rear bearing go like that on an ex's rolla. Knew something was really bad when ball bearings droppedonthe ground when the axle was pulled... At least you found the seal with your foot. The old man had a spanner slip from his hand and really started swearing as he saw it drop down an oil passage in my old Falcon. Made it all the way into the sump.

Always had tramp issues with my KE35 yet my KE20 would only tramp in reverse. Dunno why, both had similar power and tyres...

Had to try and fit a few different wheels on my '75 ke35. Could change calipers.

I hear you bro. Only 5000+ phone records sorted...

I did say it was not ideal to run a centre bore larger than the size of the hub.....

First of all, sounds like you need some "parallel shank" wheel nuts and washers, that should solve the issue with the wheel studs. Secondly, I wouldn't stress to much about the centre bore of the wheels being to big for the hub. While it is not ideal, it wont cause any issues.

some 5k starters are physically smaller allowing more space for exhausts and they can be removed without dropping the exhaust.

What tojo2 said, but be honest with them.

We just have to convert the non believers ;)

Don't stress about the hydrolics. Ran a 5k up to 8000rpm without issues with a reground cam. From memory it was a Wade 169 grind.

Whats wrong with the standard leads??? Had nothing but trouble with aftermarket leads on my 5K. IMO find a decent engine shop and talk to the man that does the building, not the muppet behind the counter. Tell them what you want to use it for and give them as much info as possible.
