O, nice, thanks for that Mitch. I have seen the Spitfire one in shops plenty of times, and i think theres also one on the Me 109 which i am planning on picking up. Now this could be the start of a very nice series.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Thank God!

My Tiger has a hiccup in the mid-range acceleration when I engage third! I'm thinking it's something with the carburetor. It;ll be great to have the recommended settings!

I've also got a couple of leaking seals on the torsion bars, and it will be great to see how to properly re-install them!

I was also going to replace the old radio unit with a 5-CD changer. I wonder if it has a chapter on mods to the sound system?

Amazon has it as a pre-order at $17.77. I just placed my order in.

Best Buy will install it for you...I had a friend who knew a guy whose cousin took his Easy Eight to Best Buy and had them install a new sound system and in-dash navigation for around $200.............................

This would have been really useful four years ago. Had to sell my Tiger when I started working downtown. Maneuvering that thing in those tight parking garages was a bear.
