I'm sure my terminology isn't right. I was calling the flanges the things with four holes in them, the u joints, well, you know what ...   07-29-2006 01:07 am

Wish I could use the vented rotors, but, that is illegal.  We can get them to work without vented rotors aka Z cars, TR8s, and ...   07-28-2006 11:00 pm

Sorry, didn't mean to get anyone fired up.  Mine is clearly different and I was just going by my experience. My five speed in the JH ...   07-28-2006 10:04 pm

Guys, if you've already made the driveshaft it is only going to bolt up one way - the axles has a flange and the transmission ...   07-28-2006 07:27 pm

Send me an email at rlearp@gt40s.com.  I'll then send you Judson's contact info. You'll also find him on the second post in this thread: http://www.jensenhealey.com/forums/view_topic.php?id=601&forum_id=2 Ron ...   07-21-2006 02:23 am

It's all done now - rod big end was out of size, that was easily checked. Motor is being rebuilt now. I forgot to update ...   07-20-2006 09:26 pm

If you are in Atlanta you need to talk to Judson (serach forum, he's here a lot). In fact, I just delivered my motor last ...   07-20-2006 03:52 pm

I do not have them for a JH, but, standard lash and pattern settings will probably suffice - it is a Vaxhaul rear end. Off ...   06-15-2006 03:02 pm

Hi, I've got a Jensen Healey I'm trying to race and the rear end is welded. I like it fine so far, but, if you do ...   06-14-2006 02:19 am

We're on it.  I'll make measurements and talk to you about it.  I think it can be polished and servicable. Some heat discoloration, some roughness, ...   06-08-2006 03:06 am

As eluded to in this post:  http://www.jensenhealey.com/forums/view_topic.php?id=234&forum_id=10 We'll go on with the restof the story. Well (all good stories start like that), we got the motor ...   06-07-2006 02:11 pm

Reason it didn't change much in color is that the adjustment of the Strombergs is incredibly fine - i.e., doesn't do much. You've have to ...   05-29-2006 12:09 am
