Alarm Siren.....
Hi all,
Unusual post or maybe not.
Is it possible that any one has a good working cobra 5370 siren "sounder" for sale or knows where I might locate one.
Picture attached of what I'm looking for, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

They were rusty enough too before tidying up, but I though the black look reasonable good anyway so I set...

Sprint engine questions
Hi,
A few questions about Sprint engine.
Is it possible to change fly wheele from one engine to another or are they balanced differently?.
Also can I change Bosch distributor and coil with Magneti Marelli?.
In general can bits be interchanged from one engine to another.
Help please.
Cathal.

Wow Ed,
Sprint looks fantastic.
As Keith said, I have the Zender kit on my Sprint too. I really like these kit's, I think they enhance an already great looking car.
Those alloys look very smart underneath the car too, keep up the great work, I'm very jealous and impressed at the same time...
