Hi Bob, That's Uryk Dmyterko's site. Bought my SS Exhaust system from him a few years back. I got a 35hp improvement from his header system ... alone! Also, his subframes are second-to-none .... and they "fit"! He's a great guy! I'd do business with him in a heartbeat. Didn't know he's doing 5-Speed...

Now, I've heard some real horror stories re; 5 spd swaps that have left folks bitter and disappointed, and several thou...

You might want to consider a less tradional, but more reliable approach that is quite a bit less expensive.. I would recommend looking into an aircraft fuel pump like Facet's 40105 - 12V Neg. Ground, 2-1/2 to 4-1/2 PSI Max.,30 GPH. 1/8 x 27 internal pipe ports.. About $33 USD. See it at http://www.a...

Hello from Port Orchard, WA
Greetings to all .... new to the E Type UK forum. :D Always enjoy good conversation about E-Types.

She's our pride and joy ... we take her on tours and rallies, an occasional "track day', and car...
