Boxer engine distributors
So had a chance to get some bits out of the shed to clear out, I found a load of distributors, definitely from alfas, but I don't know if they are boxer engine ones or twin cam / nord engine.
Would anyone know the bosch part numbers so I can see what I've got to sort out sale / swaps
Cheers

Re: Motor Mystery...
I'm sure there is some way to calculate compression pressures against current draw, once all the variables are taken into account ,, but its not done like that in service / workshops..

Re: Motor Mystery...
Compression ratio is swept volume against clearance volume isn't it? I've never thought of it as 15 psi atmospheric/ 150 psi compression means we have 10:1. Does it work like that? For a cheeky quick way of doing it, an it's actually how alfa/fiat did it as early as the 90's with the examiner, you p...

They are not the Sprintfilter branded ones, back plate is different shape and no filter for the carb breather hole. The mesh is built in / crimped around the trumpet mouth, the...

Shiney Donald trumpets
I got a great deal on these trumpets the other week, i had been toying with the idea of these for a while.. The standard air box unbolts easily enough, then once the new base plate is on, the trumpets go on with the retaining rings. It's a bit of a game lining the trumpet up over the carb mouth, if ...
