notenoughtime Posted May 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 Been buying bits as they come up, bought a dry sump system, some twin 40 dcoes (need a inlet now!), nice c&t rocker cover which I’ve welded up for the dry sump, I’ll get it blasted then wrinkle finish and then machine the top again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinkamon Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 I like the look of that very much, except I'm not too keen on the black pin stripe, maybe if there was less it'd be better but that's just my taste, many don't like what I done to mine so I can't talk 😂😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notenoughtime Posted May 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 I’m going to repaint it anyway so orange and black pinstripes are going! I did speak to the previous owner and it used to have a twin cam in it! Also received the V5 last week and only 2 previous owners not bad for a 1960 car 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinkamon Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 I quite like the orange 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notenoughtime Posted June 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 Bought some twin 40 alloy inlet manifolds today which are the separate type but seeing that people have said there are issues with vibration between the two I’m going to weld them together once they are bolted on the head which should solve that issue so now have twin 40 dcoe or Dellorto 40s need to check the jets in each set ported and polished cylinder head full dry sump system toothed belt water pump/ alternator drive kit rebuilt bottom end but unsure what cam is in it as yet Aldon dizzy I’m still looking for a gear drive kit for the camshaft if anyone knows of one? Really need to get some evenings on the Anglia the next few weeks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notenoughtime Posted June 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 Pulled the engine out and was hoping for nice bits to appear as in fast road cam etc but apart from lightened flywheel and Ap clutch that was it! No stamps on cam, no duplex timing chain ive been offered a 1600 xflow bottom end with some flat top pistons (yes I know it shouldn’t have flat tops), so will build that with my head etc Ill keep stripping the car boxing bits up then then can get on with welding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katana Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 I'm curious - why Dry Sump a road car? What benefit do you gain? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you're planning heavy track use, there aren't really any benefits...... And it's costly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notenoughtime Posted June 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 I’ve been doing track days for a few years and will get the Anglia round brands once it’s done I bought all the dry sump stuff for £175 so not a great deal of cost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
