Jonathon I am relieved that your folks are OK, but my sympathies to your uncle. I too have many happy memories of the area and could not even do a check of my friends until the phone lines were repaired. I will certainly donate to one of the funds. Andy PS I was planning to kayak the Greta through K...

Tony Please pass my congratulations along. There was a similar event in the south called the Great London Swim , which took place in the Royal Victoria Docks. My club provided the kayak safety cover for the swimmers. The format was a little different with 7 "waves" of about 200 to 400 swim...

Just to add a little information. John Macdonald's Supercharged +8 is no more , the engine is somewhere in Scotland and the car has been substantially rebuilt , almost back to standard. John thinks that the owner could be open to offers for the engine though. The Patrick Keen +8 came originally from...

Mary Thank you for the kind words , Ron will be sorely missed indeed. I remember that meeting well for several reasons. I think I was taking the exhaust off rather than re-fitting it because I used to run the car on a short side pipe at that time. I seem to recall that the programme had Brian listed...

It is my sad duty to inform the group of the sad death of one of my oldest Morgan friends , Ron Brown , who died on Monday from a suspected heart attack. Being red/green colour blind Ron was unable to get a racing licence and settled down to the pursuit of hill climbing in the 1970s in his 1958 +4 ,...

Hi Phil No this was a pretty standard looking inlet tract , the carbs are normally angled at about 15 to 18 deg I seem to remember. The combustion chambers are hemi shaped, the valve sizing is very different, but the biggest external difference is the cross flow , inlets on off side , exhausts to ne...

OK I promised to let you have some details , anyone who needs the originals of these please let me know . They are relatively poor scans of poor photocopies so please don't shoot the pianist if you can't read tem either. I am very grateful to Gerry Wilburn (of +4+ fame) for a copy of these. The pape...

John I hate to confue things further but there was yet another submission for the +4 (1965 from memory?), this was based again on TOK 258 but this time the engine was the TR based Lawrence cross flow unit , I am at work so I don't have all the details to hand , but I can print them off for anyone wh...
