RIP Gary and well done to Robin and the Yorkshire area

It's the first step towards throttle bodies anyway 😄

So sorry to hear this, so glad an event was organised for him and that he had all his friends attend. I didn’t know Gary, but any one into cars is a friend of mine. RIP Gary.

1L is plenty, Mocal are very good because they have a breathable cap. I'd just run both crank and cam breathers to that and block off the spigot underneath your intake pipe. If you mount the tank high up, oil vapour will tend to drain back to the engine, which helps too.

Very sorry to hear this.

Sorry to hear that. Thoughts to the family. Michael.

Gary will be sadly missed at our meets. Such a gent. our thoughts are with the family and close friends

screw top bottles are your friend!

So sorry to hear that. At least you helped with his final days.

A least you gave him a great day out on Sun! RIP Gary.

That will be all the 20gb images people are uploading just because they can 🤣

This was due to running out of (virtual) diskspace. My apologies.

Hi everyone, just joined the site and am starting to look for a Westfield to mainly use for track days and a little bit on the road 😊 I used to have a mega blade a long time ago and have been out of the car scene for a while. But now am starting to get pretty excited about owning one again! This time I would like a car engine , probably 2.0 with 150-200bhp . Nothing that I have to stress about to much - just use and tinker with! Any way , just wanted to say hi!

And, no I never drank all the wine first, still can’t find a corkscrew 😩

I will get one ordered then as it was something I was going to consider at some stage anyway

sorry, yes - blank that elbow fitting off

Rest in peace Gary

Sshh!

Hi Bunty, welcome. I have just joined myself and purchased the car earlier this month. I went for a SEIW 1.8 Zetec, just under £10K giving out approx 160bhp according to the dyno graph. I've only managed to drive it home so far (150 miles!) but it feels plenty fast enough for me. For now 😉 I guess mine would be fine for the track but you always want more power, so as others have said, just go for the best example you can find for the money. I think your budget should be ok given the patience of looking. I was tempted by a bike engine (love the sound) but as a newbie wanted something a little more sensible as a first car. Good luck. Luke

It's right next to the 10mm socket

A 2.0 with 150-200bhp... given the choice between XE, Zetec or Duratec, I'd buy whichever one was in the best condition or looked the prettiest. I don't think either of those engines are particularly troubled by those power outputs, so wouldn't rule any of them out purely on engine. Unless one was on carbs. I'd rule that out purely because I'm a millennial and I don't understand them

Welcome! If you are struggling with sorting the carbs and can't find anywhere local there is a company called Carbcare in Lichfield that do a postal service. They are very reasonable on price and Alan who owns the company is a real old school, time served carburettor guru (a thoroughly nice guy too).

A big thank you to everyone who came along this morning. I know Gary, and his wife Ann were moved by everyone from the Westfield, Cobra and mini clubs being there and really appreciated it. The Motorist sectioned off part of the car park and 2 tables for us in the cafe.

I'm sorry to say that Gary passed away last night. Our thoughts from the Yorkshire area go to Ann, Rebecca and Josh. He will be sadly missed.
