Hi Phil,

Can't make this months run as I'm out with my team from work. Hope to be able to make Mays get together assuming I have a working engine by then !

Are neither of your engines working?

The Tuscan is sounding a bit ticky and is valve guide wear (probably). I need to get it sorted before LeMans so it may be out of action in May. Currently resting at my parents as I need space in the garage for the Chim.

Chim engine is out of the car as it needs a new cam (the old one was very worn on cyls 7 & 8 - a known issue with rover V8s). I expect to have it back in the next cople of weeks, IF I don't get the body off to paint the chassis. I need to get the steering rack sorted out too whilst the car is laid up.
