New Leaf Spring 289 Just Finished

[Riverside racer]

Good one Jeff ,
I thoroughly enjoyed working with you and would like to thank you for taking the trouble of taking detailed pics of whatever was been discussed and then allowing me to use them in the manual for these cars.
Wonderful workmanship and now an absolute pleasure to behold.
Thank you also for the button and windscreen sprayer jets....Great find. I am so thrilled to have them on my car.
looking at your tach pic (showing 1000rpm) reminded me to warn installers who use the likes of MSD ignitions, to follow their instructions of what is reqd. when installing a tach.

I have added a note on the Wiring Diagrams for the MKII Street and FIA cars and also on the Wiring Diagrams for the CSX7000 and 8000 cars regarding this tach adapter issue. I'll also add a note in all the owner's manuals for both the MKII's and CSX cars regarding this.... Don't think it requires an additional service bulletin since it is not a "roller" related issue. All owners can contact me for a part number if necessary.

Ross, the pleasure was mine : D Thanks for taking the time to make sure the completion was successful and as accurate as possible. You're welcome on the parts, the very least I can do for your guidance.

Funny thing on the tach. It read 1,100 rpm before I ever put a battery or engine in the car. On start up, it stayed that way. I have a replacement inbound. Yep, MSD ignitions need an electronic 'adapter', available from them. The adapter model varies on your tach manufacturer.

Guys, Ross and Blas put together one of the most detailed and complete manuals I've seen. When I purchased the car, I asked for the book and got blank stares. I was told Ross was my 'manual'. After I got the car home, Ross and Blas went to work. Each book is serialized to you, and will even get a cover photo of your car if you choose. Nice touch.
