I had a Pertronix fitted to an old SVDA dizzy for years, it failed earlier this year and was too expensive to replace. I eventually got a new Bosch 034 SVDA type dizzy complete with Powerspark electronics, needed a new coil to suit but has been really good so far starts first time (once fuel...

Wow. 4lt of oil in your gearbox. What gearbox is it, the standard box takes 2.6lt of oil. I'm surprised it isn't pissing out of every orifice lol...

I like the leopard print bumper Ozziedog...

Thanks "thejinx" did it make any difference to the light output?

I have Hella H4U 12v 60/55W P43t bulbs fitted to my bus headlamps. The bulbs have a matt black coating on the end of the glass. Has anyone removed the 3 legged reflector plate from the inside of their headlamps when using these type of bulbs? Thanks.

This is the one I fitted to mine: https://www.justkampers.com/search/result/?q=J10224 Mine is RHD and be aware different lengths for different years. Also K@rlos is right, you can get universal ones which you cut to size.

First trip out in the bus for over a year. Had 3 days at Ettie's Field last week, glorious weather and we were the only ones there for the first 2 days.

Off to Etties Field camp site (CV9 3PH) tomorrow for 3 nights. First time away in the van for over a year. Van serviced and checked over, first longish run for the new engine. Looking forward to this, just hope the weather stays good.

Hi. Your bore and crank size gives 1641 cc's. With a deck height of 3mm the compression ratio is 6.6, the 3.5mm it is 6.4 To get a compression ratio of 7.5 you need to make the deck height 1.36mm

As Sparkywig says, bleed nipples at the top.

This might sound stupid, but have you got each calliper on the correct side ie with the bleed nipple on the top. I don't know if it is possible to get them the wrong way round, but I did once when I built a kit car a few years ago.

Looks like you have the bus jacked up at the rear as the gearbox looks low. Once you have got the engine past the mounting posts you can raise it up and the manifolds will go past the side tins. However you will also need to jack the gearbox up to meet the engine before you can join them.

This pump is a pull pump. I was having over fuelling problems with my twin ICT's and this pump is rated at 2.1 (ish) PSI. Also did not want to mess around with shortening the mech fuel pump pushrod.

Huco fuel pump with relay and inertia switch fitted to my van. Yet to determine how the inertia switch will react to speed bumps, pot holes etc.
