Never fails to amaze me when this country managed to produce way, way, back when. Beautiful Auburns, Cords, and the Duesenbergs plus a whole lot other very interesting period cards plus things like a nice original 427 Cobra, oddities, brands produces in Indiana. Lots of stuff that makes a visit worthwhile. An the Auburn Inn, nice place to stay with lots of period pictures adorning the hallyways. If you are in the mid west definitely worth the trip. PS around Labor Day they have an ACD Museum Festival, parades where these cars get driven, and even stage a Duesenberg Drag Race out at the airport. That I'd like to see. ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive From spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Fri Mar 1 16:03:14 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from autox.team.net (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 487764282D for ; Fri, 1 Mar 2013 16:03:14 -0700 (MST) Delivered-To: spridgets@autox.team.net Received: from st11p05mm-asmtp002.mac.com (st11p05mm-asmtp002.mac.com [17.172.108.237]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 66DFF42826 for ; Fri, 1 Mar 2013 15:43:19 -0700 (MST) Received: from cajal.uphs.upenn.edu (node3.uphs.upenn.edu [165.123.243.167]) by st11p05mm-asmtp002.mac.com (Oracle Communications Messaging Server 7u4-24.01(7.0.4.24.0) 64bit (built Jan 3 2012)) with ESMTPSA id <0MJ0009ND6S0ZT30@st11p05mm-asmtp002.mac.com> for spridgets@autox.team.net; Fri, 01 Mar 2013 22:36:00 +0000 (GMT) engine=2.50.10432:5.9.8327,1.0.431,0.0.0000 definitions=2013-03-01_08:2013-03-01,2013-03-01,1970-01-01 signatures=0 spamscore=0 ipscore=0 suspectscore=2 phishscore=0 bulkscore=0 adultscore=0 classifier=spam adjust=0 reason=mlx scancount=1 engine=6.0.2-1212290000 definitions=main-1303010230 From: Larry Macy Date: Fri, 01 Mar 2013 17:35:59 -0500 References: <70F16BA3-68EF-4385-9EDB-AA1ED939E794@me.com> <1362162661.61213.YahooMailRC@web181305.mail.ne1.yahoo.com> To: Spridgets net Subject: Re: [Spridgets] ACD Museum Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net I am pretty sure that is where we stopped on the way to the Midget 50th.

I was really impressed, especially with the full size (or was it 3/4 size?) clay model and all the offices showing how they worked, etc. I hope that is still there and did not get removed to add more cars. Then by pure luck a month later I was sent back to South Bend, this time I planned on being at the ACD at opening time on Saturday AND I was still there at closing time! One of the curators came by mid-afternoon and asked me how I was doing because he had noticed I had been there all day, I ended up with a tour of non-public areas and saw some of their stuff that they don't exhibit, I really loved it. GREAT auto museum and one that should be on everyones bucket list. mike On 03/01/2013 09:36 AM, Bob Kitterer wrote: > Photos from the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum have been added to my web site. > Photos from four other museums will be add in the near future. > > http://www.gpsztwo.net/automotive/auto-museums/acd-museum-photos/ > > Enjoy > > > Bob and Dolores > > 1960 Austin Healey Sprite (Mk IV in disguise) > 1966 Austin Healey Sprite Mk III (Trevor) - still in boxes > ------------------------ ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive From spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Sat Mar 2 01:24:59 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from autox.team.net (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id B036442557 for ; Sat, 2 Mar 2013 01:24:59 -0700 (MST) Delivered-To: spridgets@autox.team.net Received: from nk11p00mm-asmtp007.mac.com (nk11p00mm-asmtp007.mac.com [17.158.161.6]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 67DB840453 for ; Sat, 2 Mar 2013 00:57:31 -0700 (MST) Received: from [192.168.0.9] (unknown [108.247.153.33]) by nk11p00mm-asmtp007.mac.com (Oracle Communications Messaging Server 7u4-26.01(7.0.4.26.0) 64bit (built Jul 13 2012)) with ESMTPSA id <0MJ0002OWWFMVJ20@nk11p00mm-asmtp007.mac.com> for Spridgets@autox.team.net; Sat, 02 Mar 2013 07:50:11 +0000 (GMT) engine=2.50.10432:5.9.8327,1.0.431,0.0.0000 definitions=2013-03-02_03:2013-03-01,2013-03-02,1970-01-01 signatures=0 spamscore=0 ipscore=0 suspectscore=0 phishscore=0 bulkscore=0 adultscore=0 classifier=spam adjust=0 reason=mlx scancount=1 engine=6.0.2-1203120001 definitions=main-1303010398 From: Bob Kitterer Date: Fri, 01 Mar 2013 23:50:09 -0800 To: Spridgets Subject: [Spridgets] More Auto Museums Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net The Lane, Shelby and Tallahassee Auto Museums have been added to the web site. http://www.gpsztwo.net/automotive/auto-museums/ Bob and Dolores 1960 Austin Healey Sprite (Mk IV in disguise) 1966 Austin Healey Sprite Mk III (Trevor) - still in boxes ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive From spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Sat Mar 2 07:44:53 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from autox.team.net (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4AF9E42863 for ; Sat, 2 Mar 2013 07:44:53 -0700 (MST) Delivered-To: spridgets@autox.team.net Received: from imr-da06.mx.aol.com (imr-da06.mx.aol.com [205.188.169.203]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1D4F040454 for ; Sat, 2 Mar 2013 07:17:04 -0700 (MST) Received: from mtaomg-ma06.r1000.mx.aol.com (mtaomg-ma06.r1000.mx.aol.com [172.29.41.13]) by imr-da06.mx.aol.com (Outbound Mail Relay) with ESMTP id 35D741C0000B3 for ; Sat, 2 Mar 2013 09:09:43 -0500 (EST) Received: from core-doc001a.r1000.mail.aol.com (core-doc001.r1000.mail.aol.com [172.29.160.193]) by mtaomg-ma06.r1000.mx.aol.com (OMAG/Core Interface) with ESMTP id 06957E000081 for ; Sat, 2 Mar 2013 09:09:43 -0500 (EST) From: WeslakeMonza1330@aol.com Full-name: WeslakeMonza1330 Date: Sat, 2 Mar 2013 09:09:42 -0500 (EST) To: spridgets@autox.team.net x-aol-global-disposition: G s=20121107; t=1362233383; bh=qmvPU4BsfFb5CJAVgeGLHXi7lhwqsq7qwiV3qQtr4Dc=; h=From:To:Subject:Message-ID:Date:MIME-Version:Content-Type; b=sGv5fiJOLi2H6KlTz+OZDqQNgxGXt9UbSmBmPYEa4+d489fQsRUdBBrprHOvMW5Pv L7vIzAr2QpGiyHx81lttdU4+KTWzhcbqtITUecmKy596yB6JDW6CnKxlcwAXSi4TZE B/lWz7w2cAro0Wie09D5zdfWYEOCMBSWEdpZgHEc= x-aol-sid: 3039ac1d290d51320827778d Subject: [Spridgets] Midget and Arden 8 port head Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net It must have been 20 years since a saw a Midget with an Arden 8 port head will today I saw the same car and go to hear it as well.

Some of the smaller bags/boxes went in the very rear and around the sides. This left room for the garment bag to go cross wise on top of the two small suitcases filling that area. Things were packed in the revers order that they would be needed. For instance there is a small tool box, it went at the very back since I hoped it would not be needed, as was the case. By using lots of small containers we were able to take advantage of the areas around the spare as well as the corners at the very rear. I seriously doubt that I am still agile enough to do that type of packing now!

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Last year before I buttoned up the Sprite for winter I took it for a usual weekly ride. About 4 miles from home I was waiting to get around a tree service crew. As I passed them the car began to stumble an run really rough. It felt like it was running on two cyclinders along with a pinging type of sound. I limped home and parked the car for winter. I figured that perhaps something was wrong with my home brewed MSD box. I would deal with it in the Spring. So today I'm out troubleshooting the thing. I started by making a little harness that allows me to swap out the MSD box. I figured this is a good thing to have anyway. But the MSD box was not the issue. In fact spark is not the issue. Plenty of spark on every cylinder even without the msd box. It seemed like at idle, I could pull cylinders 1 & 2 spark plug boots and not see an appreciable drop in rpms. So I thought maybe something was wrong with the front SU carb. I opened and drained it's float and removed the bell. I then took canned air and reverse blew through the main jet to make sure the tube was not clogged. That was'nt it. Now I'm worried, so I pull the valve cover to make sure none of the rocker adjuster had'nt worked loose. No problem there... So now I'm thinking either valves or head gasket. But the failure was sudden. Has to be head gasket. I Googled "symptoms of blown head gasket between cylinders" and I find this... http://retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&threa d=102462 Which has a link to this video on youtube... http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=k1zNcXUq834 Which is almost EXACTLY what my Sprite sounds like right now. Guess I need to finish up that 12G295 head in a hurry. Ordered all the bits.

Why not list on UK ebay? Of course the really rare webers will fetch a couple of thousands pounds. Regards Weslake-Monza 1330 (who is Daniel?)

Double or triple sounds a little optimistic to me, though. If you know anybody willing to give me that much, please send them my way and Ibll cut you a nice commission! In any case, Ibm not losing anything on it at $275, so Ibm ok with this.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net I wonder how many they actually sold. I've never seen one before and I was very involved with air-cooled VWs (and getting back into them, again, now) back when they were new. I know the dealers around Pittsburgh never used them, nor did the VW dealer I worked for in Alton, IL. Pretty neat devices, for sure. Still, most VW guys (myself included) did just fine with a conventional floor jack. When combined with a shop lift (the dealers used a 4 post model, which was pretty much the standard for VW/Porsche service departments), the floor jack made short work of an engine r&r for an experienced mechanic. Lin, you might want to keep your eyes peeled, at Import Carlisle. You just never know when something like that might show up.

So Bud are you restoring/repairing an aircooled bus or bug now? If I had a jack like this I'm sure I can pull my engine out single handed. I don't need to pull it it would just make it easier to swap out my heater boxes as well as cool factor being every aircooled motorhead talks about how easy it is with only 4 bolts holding it in place which still amazes me.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Lin, Suddenly, yes, I'm finishing up a long-dormant restoration project on a '73 std. beetle. I finally accepted the reality (actually, the reality has been crammed down my throat!) that I need to replace my Golf III daily driver. I decided that I'd be damned if I would ever again have a daily driver that needed to go any farther than my own garage/workshop for ANYTHING. For me, that can only mean an air-cooled VW. I had already completed the metal work (LOTS of it!) on this particular beetle about 15+ years ago, so it's more a matter of painting and assembly. However, I've got a lot of parts to dig out of my stash, sort, clean, recondition/whatever before I actually assemble the car. Still, I expect to have the car up and running sometime in May without too much difficulty. Among the many projects assuring my immortality (wife says "don't you DARE die before you finish all of these projects and get them gone!") is my 387,000 mile '72 Super Beetle and a '68 VW panel van. The '72 SB will replace the Golf as my back-up daily driver (the '73 will replace the Golf as my main daily driver). If you can find one of those engine hoist thingies, it would be helpful, but not at all essential, for r & r ing your bus motor. A floor jack, with a good block of wood on the pad, is really all you need. After you've done it a few times, it's just like riding a bicycle. You never quite forget how. As with most things, it's best to take your time and be very methodical about it, so you don't end up with an engine hanging by a throttle cable of part of the wiring harness. ;) It really does help to have a second person, to operate the jack while the other guides the engine/tilts the engine on the jack as needed, but I've done it myself a whole bunch of times, over the years and still have all of my fingers, toes, etc..and have never damaged car or engine in the process. I'll send you some pics of the project later on. Now back to "normal" subject material: I need to schedule an appointment to get my cats' annual booster shots 7 check-ups. And it's time to get the short to medium range artillery out and start shooting this year's crop of ground hogs.

Hey Bud that's a great idea as many people may not even know what it is if they had it : ) Well hopeful wishing anyway. So Bud are you restoring/repairing an aircooled bus or bug now? If I had a jack like this I'm sure I can pull my engine out single handed. I don't need to pull it it would just make it easier to swap out my heater boxes as well as cool factor being every aircooled motorhead talks about how easy it is with only 4 bolts holding it in place which still amazes me.

Go to your local home center and by a package of wooden shims. Where the engine needs to be tilted to align the bolt with the hole, insert a shim on that low side and tap it to raise that side of the engine. -- Kent McLean '56 Austin-Healey 100 BN2 ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive From spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Wed Mar 20 12:45:11 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from autox.team.net (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id E54E64052F for ; Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:45:11 -0600 (MDT) Delivered-To: spridgets@autox.team.net Received: from brantnet.kwic.com (brantnet.kwic.com [205.150.58.224]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8680F403DB for ; Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:42:47 -0600 (MDT) Received: from [127.0.0.1] (adsl-64-136-125-144.kwic.com [64.136.125.144]) by brantnet.kwic.com (8.14.4/8.14.4) with ESMTP id r2KIf61U035301 for ; Wed, 20 Mar 2013 14:41:06 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from ridleymj@brant.net) Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2013 14:41:15 -0400 From: Martyn Ridley User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:17.0) Gecko/20130307 Thunderbird/17.0.4 To: spridgets@autox.team.net Subject: [Spridgets] Aluminium Radiators - From China Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Has anybody any experience with the aluminium radiators being advertised by several groups on E-Bay.

If I was in the USA I'd buy an aluminium radiator from Tom Colby at Speedwell. In fact even though I'm in the UK I still bought my replacement Panhard rod tower from Tom who made it in a bespoke size for me. Radiators from China are a bit like con-rods from China - they might be a bargain but then again they might not.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Lin, If you are into pain & suffering, I suppose you could replace the heater boxes with the engine in place. Long-time air-cooled VW folks tend to pull the engine as casually as normal people say "excuse me". ;) Look at it this way: the exhaust flange nuts are probably pretty well rusted to the manifold studs and if you break one of the studs, you're going to have to pull the engine, anyway. Also, have the heads been re-torqued since you've had the bus? Easier to do that with the engine out. On my air-cooled engines, I used to (and will, again) remove the engine every two or three years just re-torque the heads and to pull the cooling tin off and make sure everything is clean under there. It only takes a little bit of an oil mist (and if you think Spridgets leak oil...) to land on cooling fins of heads or cylinders or oil cooler and start accumulating fine particles of dust, which continues to build-up until you've got some significant blockage of cooling air. Not a good thing! Also, with the engine out, EVERYTHING on the engine (except the oil drain plug and sump plate) and engine compartment is easily accessible, so you can come up with a nice list of "might as wells". J Fun stuff! You'll want to make sure all of the rubber around the perimeter of the engine compartment and on the rear cover plate is in good shape and that there are no significant openings in the cover plates. This is critical to keeping the engine temperatures down to a survivable (for the engine) level. Also, how's the clutch looking? Bus clutches really do take a beating, so you don't want to start the season with a worn clutch. Clutch release shaft bushings OK? Easy to access with the engine out and not that difficult to replace. Food for thought and, yes, you'll want to have some help, when you pull that engine out for the first few times. Looking longingly at the Midget, yesterday and remembering that it had already been out for several runs on salt-free roads by this time, last year L Beginning to think that the run to Import Carlisle may be it's first time out, this year. By Import Carlisle, last year, I had already put a couple thousand miles on it!

I have a bugeye with a 1275. I retained the stock bugeye Downflow radiator. I also looked on eBay and found they listed a Superadiator at I think $299.99 plus shipping. They also list two from GPI Racing. Both are $273.24 plus $75.90 shipping. One says the manufacturer is Opel / Vauxhall ??? and cooling capacity is increased 30% to 40%. The other says the manufacturer is Austin ??? and the cooling capacity is increased. Both are 2 Row and the pictures look identical. Anybody have any knowledge about these? I am debating the choice of spending much more for the best recommended ones, or going a less expensive route. Also, what's the consensus of replacing the metal 4 blade fan with a plastic 6 blade one?

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Well, This morning I pulled off the old head in under 40 minutes. Spent the rest of the day pulling parts off the old head to put on the new one. Then re-installing. It was a blown gasket between 1 & 2 like I suspected. http://tinyurl.com/d8shsav One thing I've discovered is that all the manifold & thrmostat housing studs I bought from Moss were about 1/4" longer than I prefer. I turned them down on the lathe. All the other studs were easily removed from the old head using a pair of nuts backed to back. I didn't trust the aluminum valve spring retainers so I pulled the steel ones off the old head. I used the springs on the 12G295 head since they looked thicker. There was another hitch. The 12G295 head had locating sleeves for the intake manifold. Unfortunately, my manifold does not have the cutouts for locating sleeves.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net As part of what I call "ground clutter", in my pole barn, I have a '76 Midget shell, with some new sill panels installed by a previous owner. Originally, I acquired this car for my youngest son (who wanted to install a Mazda rotary engine, etc.), who has moved on to other interests. I was thinking of throwing it on my trailer and bringing it to Carlisle this year, to see if I can find a new home for it. I do have a title for it. I'd even bring the engine & transmission, if anyone is interested in the car. Please understand that this is a bare shell, although the original hood, doors and trunk lid will be with it. I will be very flexible on price, as the pole barn space is of more value to me, right now, than the Midget.

Spent the rest of the day pulling parts off the old head to put on the new one. Then re-installing. It was a blown gasket between 1 & 2 like I suspected. http://tinyurl.com/d8shsav One thing I've discovered is that all the manifold & thrmostat housing studs I bought from Moss were about 1/4" longer than I prefer. I turned them down on the lathe. All the other studs were easily removed from the old head using a pair of nuts backed to back. I didn't trust the aluminum valve spring retainers so I pulled the steel ones off the old head. I used the springs on the 12G295 head since they looked thicker. There was another hitch. The 12G295 head had locating sleeves for the intake manifold. Unfortunately, my manifold does not have the cutouts for locating sleeves. I thought all 1-1/4" manifolds would have the locating sleeve cutouts. Is this something that was added later? I did'nt bother with them. In any case. It all worked out. Car runs fine. I think I'll take her out for a spin tommorow and then re-torque the head, re-adjust the valves, and then change the oil. ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/spridgets/pvanwig@mac.com ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive From spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Sun Mar 24 11:53:16 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from autox.team.net (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 450A042540 for ; Sun, 24 Mar 2013 11:53:16 -0600 (MDT) Delivered-To: spridgets@autox.team.net Received: from qmta05.westchester.pa.mail.comcast.net (qmta05.westchester.pa.mail.comcast.net [76.96.62.48]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 95E0940E9C for ; Sun, 24 Mar 2013 11:51:21 -0600 (MDT) Received: from omta12.westchester.pa.mail.comcast.net ([76.96.62.44]) by qmta05.westchester.pa.mail.comcast.net with comcast id FRDT1l0070xGWP855VpM58; Sun, 24 Mar 2013 17:49:21 +0000 Received: from blackbox2 ([69.253.143.59]) by omta12.westchester.pa.mail.comcast.net with comcast id FVpM1l00B1H6MAV3YVpMzf; Sun, 24 Mar 2013 17:49:21 +0000 From: "Dean Hedin" To: "'Paul Van Wig'" References: <32FE9879C2FA4E3CBDBA9EBAA05CC44D@blackbox2> <56215778-1FF8-42AE-84FB-DA056851B529@mac.com> Date: Sun, 24 Mar 2013 13:49:11 -0400 Thread-Index: Ac4ooHQ3AziOov+ESAyo67J519NrPAAFs1Xw s=q20121106; t=1364147361; bh=hqnHsWEtNTnqvF8bCVM8u2TQxjl1OKonuwM81F63l1I=; h=Received:Received:From:To:Subject:Date:Message-ID:MIME-Version: Content-Type; b=WbdLPWm4kLfGBuIKTiWqh9GuSmvFwATlHL11ZSxvA1qZg1UoTm+jaPOGq8jj7eQ+5 rgRlykXwlsGdqQqpp2kYvmU35+i7Oqui5n81v5zHEoJCOlVCYLeYGVQpXkLQI4+Ui5 uxkEQs5TL76Z4U1WlchNDTfaS+FFK/g8s5IpLMt7mU4dMN8E0h5A/B3El2L7dRTnDC s10iQJjkpMrNVn6/I4AIMLcHy3A8GgLfLLXcoBm75Jbd8nk0L30Q8GZzyx3oN0JITt JdD1XtgIBOPiJ137ZqHuneAUXw5KMfvxjFNk0OXwKJwTPYYo3qoDx4NYYjBjHB9znf VQwaL5bMaiOvw== Cc: 'Spridgets' Subject: Re: [Spridgets] A little head action...

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net As you recall, fronm the "Special Tunning for Sprites and Midgets".. "Assuming the thermostat is working correctly, overheating can result if it is removed without fitting a blanking sleeve 11G 176 in it's place. Alternatively, the bypass connection between the cylinder head and water pump may be sealed on 'A' series engines." I've thought it over. The above statement is true. If you block the bypass then you don't need the blanking sleeve (and no thermostat). The only purpose of the blanking sleeve is to obstruct the flow to the bypass. Here's my justifiction. In the normal case, in a warmed up engine, the water pump is pushing water into the block up through the head through the OPENED thermostat and then the water expells out the thermostat housing into the top of the radiator. Water from the bottom of the radiator feeds the water pump But when the engine is cold the thermostat is closed, so no water enters the top of the radiator.

"Assuming the thermostat is working correctly, overheating can result if it is removed without fitting a blanking sleeve 11G 176 in it's place. Alternatively, the bypass connection between the cylinder head and water pump may be sealed on 'A' series engines." I've thought it over. The above statement is true. If you block the bypass then you don't need the blanking sleeve (and no thermostat). The only purpose of the blanking sleeve is to obstruct the flow to the bypass. Here's my justifiction. In the normal case, in a warmed up engine, the water pump is pushing water into the block up through the head through the OPENED thermostat and then the water expells out the thermostat housing into the top of the radiator. Water from the bottom of the radiator feeds the water pump But when the engine is cold the thermostat is closed, so no water enters the top of the radiator. In this case the water comes from the head via the bypass. It a little "sub loop" until the head warms up enough to open the thermostat. The important thing is this.

I have the thermostat bulb in the head right by the thermostat and it seems to read the warm up pretty fast.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net I was just googling thermostats. Some modern ones are two stage affairs so that when they open they have another valve that closes the bypass. A solution that might work for you and I.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Well, let me know what happens. You have my curiosity up. The thermostats with the blocking sleeve are quite expensive and you are limited in the temp range. I did run with a blanking sleeve at one time, but I did not block off the bypass. I don't remember having good results with that, but I did not know much about the cooling system back then. Besides, it was something I tried on the original 948 I had in the Bugeye at the time because it was overheating. The 1275 I have in there now runs at a perfect temp all the time. Gerard built the short block for me and did an exceptional job. His work is impeccable.

Some modern ones are two stage affairs so that when they open they have another valve that closes the bypass. A solution that might work for you and I.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net It's not called a "restrictor plate". It's called a "blanking sleeve". Moss sells them. Clearly you are not following. The BMC Special Tuning Guide states... "Assuming the thermostat is working correctly, overheating can result if it is removed without fitting a blanking sleeve 11G 176 in it's place. Alternatively, the bypass connection between the cylinder head and water pump may be sealed on 'A' series engines." It's not that I want to run without a thermostat. My situation is that the previous owner on the 1100 head that I just installed blocked the bypass. At this point I'd have to remove the head to unblock it and I'm not up to doing that. Now, I don't think it is safe to run a thermostat if the bypass is blocked. I think I provided a good reason why it's bad to do this. I just looked at Moss's catalog and it looks like the 1275 cars have the bypass too. The 1500 design is a different animal (but I'll bet there is still a bypass mechanism) And no, I'm not trying to pull anybody's chain. Now, you explain to me why the bypass "did'nt do all that much and was'nt needed" or else I will think you are pulling everyone's chain. You can start by drawing yourself a little schematic of how the water flows through the A series cooling system. With any luck it should then become clear to you why the bypass is there. With a little more luck it might become clear to you that just about any car with a thermostat must have (and does have) a bypass mechanism. ________________________________ From: dwramsey@att.net [mailto:dwramsey@att.net] Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2013 2:36 AM To: Dean Hedin Cc: spridgets@autox.team.net Subject: Re: [Spridgets] Blanking sleeve and blocked bypass again...

A restrictor plate or blanking sleeve is just a thermostat with the works cut out and the plate used by itself. The reason it overheats without one is because of the increase of flow, the coolant doesn't stay in the radiator long enough to cool. 90% of all engine ware is at start up on a cold engine. No thermostat, more ware. You might have a point that if the thermostat fails closed and if you look at one they are designed to fail open. You car would over heat a little faster without the bypass but not by much. My point is no bypass and a thermostat will work fine.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net You don't know what you are talking about. All the sleeve does is block the bypass port. The bottom hole is BIG. Bigger than an opened thermostat. It is not designed to restrict flow. That's some sort of fantasy in your mind. Here, read this or look at the pictures or something... http://mgaguru.com/mgtech/cooling/cool_103b.htm Your point about the thermostat working properly with the bypass blocked is equally wrong. With the bypass blocked and with the thermostat closed (like when the engine first starts up) there will be no flow around the thermostat or through the block and the head. As the back of the block/head warms up the thermostat will not be made aware, since there is no flow. Trust me the back of the block heats up first, and cast iron and non flowing water are poor conductors of heat. Remember the thermostat is at the front of the engine, cool water from the top of radiator will slosh against it. It won't know that the back of the block is heating up unless the water is flowing through the bypass. _______________________________ From: dwramsey@att.net [mailto:dwramsey@att.net] Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2013 9:33 PM To: Dean Hedin Cc: spridgets@autox.team.net Subject: Re: [Spridgets] Blanking sleeve and blocked bypass again...

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Instead of the blanking sleeve you could make a disc out of a piece/disc of aluminium the same outside diameter of the thermostat and drill a 5/8" hole in the center, just make sure the disc is thick enough to fit snug. Remove thermostat and insert the disc. We do this in all the race engines we rebuild. Some of them we have to fiddle with the center hole size but we use the 5/8" as a starting point. You may have to change the size for winter and summer driving. Most of the heads have the bypass plugged.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net Don't take it that way. You got it from other people who were wrong. I just looked through Vizard's "How to modify your Mini" and his discussion about the blanking sleeve is also incorrect. Vizard states that if you install the blanking sleeve then you'll want to block off the bypass. That's wrong. The blanking sleeve WILL block off the bypass. If you read Vizard's text on this it will be clear that it is second hand info he is relaying. e.g. "I have it on good authority..." In addition, he doesn't describe the flow of water around the thermostat and why the bypass is there in the first place. I am absolutely certain that if you have the bypass blocked off, then you MUST NOT install a thermostat. You risk overheating areas of the engine furthermost from the thermostat. Just draw yourself a diagram of how the water flows with the thermostat closed off and it all becomes clear.

From what I can see, their quality is *much* better than the Chinese variants. Their number is 716-655-6760. I have been talking with Scott and he has been most helpful. Their original design did not include the shrouds. He is adding them to mine at no additional cost. In the end, I will be paying $499 - which is somewhat more that the various ones on eBay, which seem to be the same even though they have different names, but less than the one produced by Ron Davis. Does anybody know of a producer Silcone hoses for the downflow type?
