Not just you, I just replaced my short one that broke with a nice long one. I didn't bother trimming the outer housing at all. It comes up behind the camgears around the head, along the fuel rail, out around the coolant reservoir and onto the throttle. Looks a bit naff but I don't care. The old one ...

You can sure say that again, that looks horn.

*Goes off to look for some Gutmann wheels*

I see what you mean, no way you'd fit anything more than 7" in there.

Thanks Mike,

I figured as much, but as always it's great to hear some personal experience, I hadn't realised all that was required to fit 7 inch wheels, but it seems likely.

Cheers,

I'm dreaming right?
Please tell me there is a way without destroying my arch.
I really want Borbet Type A's but I can't find them in less than 8 inch wide in Aussieland.

Are the 405 and BX auto switches the same though? I know the BX has a four button switch that has this layout [o<>o]. And I thought the 405 has a switch that looked like a normal [< >] rocker switch but "Auto" was written in the middle [< auto >]. Also I believe the size of the rocker of t...

I'd also like to know peoples thoughts on the GroupN mounts & GroupA bush in a car that is likely to not see the track. I have a higher compression engine that is likely to go into the car at some stage. Would these mounts compliment the engine or just shake my fillings out at idle, or worse, po...

Thanks for that Cammy, Also, I've never taken apart the BX gear linkages, are they similar to the 205's? Can any of the bakerbm 205 gear linkage rods or bushes be used to improve the BX? http://www.bakerbm.com/205.php?data=bbush205linkage http://www.bakerbm.com/205.php?data=bbush205gearstick http://...

205 engine mounts

Are they the same as our 16 Valves engine mounts?

Would the uprated bakerbm 205 mounts fit?
http://www.bakerbm.com/205.php?data=engkitn205

They certainly look similar..
