I agree. I have got an original frogeye one but it played up and I decided it wasn't worth the risk after much fettling. They were pretty cheaply made so after 50 plus years are probably past their best.

There is a simple (safe) formula to follow as far as reducing compression against boost pressure

Willem, Thanks for the info. I am going to have my engine and gearbox modified by Peter Edney to 1500 fast road and would like to make sure the brakes are uprated also. If anyone reads this and has any MGA front suspension for sale, please get in touch. I guess I will need a servo modification too!

Cheers.

A few years ago I had plastic coated braided steel lengths made up with loops on each end - made by a rope and tackle outfit. Used them for years on one job at work. Later, I used them for engine extraction and they were perfect however, I helped a friend remove the large, beautiful and very valuable engine from his Lancia Aurelia. As I lowered it down almost to ground level one of the loops slipp...

Thanks Bob. There's some original ones on ebay but I'd worry about reliability with a part that's been 'weathered". Maybe a new one then.
