Printable version of Entry

Over the weekend I went and picked up two nice doors and misc Westy parts. Went to install one of the doors and its off a earlier bus so the hingebolts are different. Great, now to fab something up. Found out why you can't unlock the doors with a key. Hmm, the cam is about to fall off! I will be switching the door handles and that will give me time to fix it right. Here is a pic of the oil temp sender setup I came up with so the Westy will have a oil temp gauge along with CHT and oil pressure.
The 914 news is the pistons are on the way. Hmm, why pistons? Well, there is no way to get new freakin rings for the ones I have so I ordered new ones from Jake. Talked to Len at HAM and the refreshed heads are on their way also!
Damn, progress is slow but its getting there.

Found some cheap 911 struts too so I will be switching over to a Vented 911 disc setup front and rear. In the rear I will use the spacer setup I bought from Dave P.
