That is trick. Thanks for showing that! Now we have one more way to "solidify" the rear suspension for severe cornering. Any rubber cushioning, anywhere throughout the suspension, causes "give" and "slop" when put to the test. For instance, you know the rubber bushings in the control rods and panhard bar? You would not believe the difference when these are removed and solid bushings go in!

Good Site!

Just click on "Homepage" and take a look at a serious opeller.

Marc, David Jackson covers the use of the crank trigger for ignition too, have a look.

Jeff, Have a good look at his motor mods too - see what happens when an Opel crank lets go!
