Default Question for Phil

When you swapped the 261...... why did you stay with the 216 lighter flywheel and smaller clutch when you could have used the existing 261 parts..?

I am using the larger or heavier 261 flywheel as it stores more torque and kept the 11 inch clutch plate that originated with the 5 ton fuel truck.... clutch plate was machined and rebuilt with HD springs...clutch plate relined and grooved for cooling.....

Just curious....

Default Quick Run Down South

I have some chores to attend to in Southern Ontario. So I will be making a high speed run to the Toronto area soon.

If anyone in Ottawa wants something delivered down south (nothing too large) PM me. If anyone down Toronto way wants something delivered to the Ottawa area, let me know and we will arrange a pick up time and location. Kick in for fuel, and I will deliver the goods to where you want them...

If you're in Toronto and either (a) want a break or (b), need a bed, call me. You're welcome anytime, mate...

I appreciate the offer Geoff, and thank you for it. However, the trip will be down and back as the frau returns from visiting her folks the next day...I want to sneak in another "shopping trip" before the leash gets attached.
