New to the fold in a Special

1. The gearbox should contain engine oil and not gearbox oil, 30SAE or 20W50 not 90.
2. Amputation or just go round left handers
3. can't comment - I do all my own work. Invest in a "colortune"
4. taking the silencer off can often upset engine performance and permanently damage your eardrums and the tolerance of your neighbours
5. An A7 that doesn't leak oil is empty, but the source is probably the crankcase to block joint, not the flywheel cover.
6. The SU should have a linkage that partially opens the butterfly when you pull the choke on.
7. You need flat rear springs and 19" wheels or 17" all round) - it looks a bit daft at the moment.
8. It may be splashing out of the filler cap or out through the overflow, but if it stays above the core it'll be ok.
9. If you change to a 5.25 rear axle it will just have to rev even more, and the axles are wider which involves a lot of alteration. (it's actually 4.9 not 4.1)
A 4 speed box can have synchromesh but that won't just fit in without alterations to prop shaft and engine mount position.

10. Try ear plugs and rev it harder.
