    DGV Settings

    Thanks so far for the comments! @nsbluenose, I just checked and my Weber is Primary - 55 and Secondary - 50. So based on @pruyter's comment about the intake, I am running a SIV intake manifold, which might need bigger jets, based on lost efficiency, so I am curious as to what manifold you are...

    Thinking of selling....

    Thanks @junkman, good point about being a soft market for Alpines at the moment. I would imagine, Spring would help with better sales as well. I have been leaning towards just doing the interior and roof and enjoy for another year... Maybe that's whats in the cards... I was just looking to...

    @junkman here are some pics from about a year ago, with the top up.... I do have a brand new seal for the top where it meets the windshield as well. Thanks.

    @junkman , it is a 2nd paint... Decent. The top is okay, aged original one. The mileage is 47k. I will post a pick with the top up later today when I get home.

    Thinking of selling....

    Hey Everyone... So I have come to a cross roads with Sunny.... my SV Alpine. It is a 1966. I bought for a couple of reasons, 1) pandemic project, 2) Get this cool little car on the road again (had sat since the '70's). So it needed a lot of love.

    Hey everyone, So I am confused as to where my indicator is showing TDC to be in reference to the markings on the crankshaft pulley. According to the Rootes workshop manual I have, the largest and first marking is TDC (see photo attached). However, I got the car running fairly well but was...

    Getting Fuel Compression Adaptor Fitting Back on Fuel Line

    Hey all, so yeah, not sure what I was thinking trying to reuse a "compression fitting", in hind sight, it is quiet stupid. Nevertheless, I got the right size NEW compression sleeve, a 5/16" sleeve, and all went perfectly from there... Thanks to everyone and apologies for the bonehead...

    Getting Fuel Compression Adaptor Fitting Back on Fuel Line

    Hey @Bill Blue, it very well could be (as I am the 3rd owner), but it looked untouched (which really means nothing). I have found little funky things here and there as I work on this SV.
