Today is the day
Well the Indy was taken off the road about 6weeks ago due to engine mount snapped and cluth relase bearing. After struggling to source both parts i
set to putting the car back together. Engine now sits fine, but still a whining noise, another new clutch bearing, and again still a whining noise. So
took the gearbox apart last nite to look at it and there were bits of metal floating around in there. The bearings were falling apart and the
synchro's have lost all their newness.
Got a gearbox being delivered today by a mate, so fingers crossed i should be back out for the weekend.
Cue the rain

It's a CEC. All CEC's whine. Seriously though, get a bike engine dropped in. Bike gearboxes are much stronger.

"All CEC's whine."
No No No ..................... All CEC owners whine
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

Noooooo, I think you're getting confused. CEC's growl, BEC's whine. And clonk. And clatter. And then go nicely silent so you can
wait for the RAC in peace and quiet
