Here's a couple of pics showing the traction rods. I think you should be able to work out measurements if you want to make a set. These still pop up from time to time for sale.  Regards Alex |

After sorting out the electrics and having the carbies rebuilt to matching specs, we thought we would get her on the Dyno for some sorting out. The first few runs showed that the Air-Fuel ratios were too low. We found we did not have suitably sizes jets amongst the many spares, so purchased a new set of adjustable mains. This did the trick, with the AFR coming back up to a more acceptable level. Here are some pics.     Here's a video.  The end result showed a rear wheel horsepower of 80.3HP. If you want to contact Hi-comp, they are located here: Unit 2 12 Eddie Road MINCHINBURY NSW 2770 Ph: (02) 9677 0505 Check out their website http://www.hicomp.com.au/index.htmlRegards Alex |

Hey Mark
We did not have a tacho since going to the electronic dissy so can't tell you RPM. I think the torque peaked at around 370lb.

Alex

Sounds great on the video Alex, I take it they analyze the engine & tell you what needs doing, is it expensive?
Cheers, Gary

Hey Gary. The cost is around $100 per hour. The dyno lets you see the results of any changes you make to the set up of the car. Here's another video.  Regards Alex |

Hmmm, let's take a step way back to near the start. I just came across these pics of the floor repairs, so here they are.  As you can see, we did not replace the entire floor pan in the front, choosing to make up a few patches instead. The drivers side being similar to this side.  As for the rear, it turned out to be swiss cheese, so we replaced the entire rear floor pan with 1 we scored from a mate.....thanks Jordo! The greenish floor section is the replacement. Stop press - found a few more pics of the floor before the above repairs.     Regards Alex |

Well, Miss Behavin has been on the road now for about 4 years, so we thought, like all girls, she might like a bit of a makeover in a few spots. With the 2010 Nationals coming up, and with it's touring car connections, we decided she needed a fresh new circuit racer feel. To that end, John has set about lowering her all round and replacing the bumper on the front. Not big changes, but it sure transforms her. Here are a few pics taken on her first trip out of the shed since the changes.    See you in Orange!! Regards Alex |
