I'm ready for a road test of my Vee after reverting it back to vintage specs with much help from you all. Does anyone have info on what tires I should buy for this car? I saw a couple of posts from fellow CVAR members - nice to see. I am missing the ECR race this weekend because of extended family. ...

Thank you very much for your help Dietmar. I now have the confidence to wire up the generator and start the engine. This time I think I'll have oil pressure, thanks to all who helped me with the oil pump. When I get this car running and safe I'll have a very hard time deciding whether or not to leav...

Thanks for everyones help with the oil pump. I am trying to figure out how to hook up the voltage regulator but the instructions are in spanish. I think I have it figured out but I would like a tried and true scheme to be my example. Can someone give me some direction? Thanks Again- Marcus

I installed a new oil pump with 26mm gears. Now I get 15 psi from the starter with plugs removed. I'll put it together this wknd and run the motor. Good indication that I'll have sufficient pressure. Thanks for all your help.

I pulled the pump and there was lots of scoring on the gears, case and cover. The left port was tapped and plugged. The passage behind the plug was open and goes up and to the left where my filter return line was connected. I cut the filter and there was barely any debris. I expected much more after...

Great info- thanks guys, I'll order a new pump pronto. When I wrote that it would not fill the tube to the mechanical guage it was with the end of the tube open before attaching the guage. Thats like me not being able to blow water through an open straw. So that was really low. I'll keep the filter ...

There was enough stud protruding from the nut to measure with a bolt guage, it did not fit in the 7 and the 8 slid right over. Have to make a pully puller that will fit in between my firewall brace and motor. I'm going to replace the pump first and hope it helps. Should I do away with the remote oil...

The sender is currently on the side of the case, the warning light switch is on the front. The oil is returned from the filter into a much larger, threaded port on the front of the case. The oil temp sender is threaded into the remote oil filter base. Thanks - Marcus

Can anyone tell me what year my engine was manufactured? The case number is 9470171. I need to order a new oil pump and do not know which one to get. The present one is behind a cover with a fitting on it that goes to a remote filter, then fed back into the case into a protusion below to the front o...

I am currently restoring a Vee to vintage specs and I was wondering if the style of housing that has the oil cooler in its own seperate compartment is allowable. I have been told this will help with the cooling considerably. I run a FF normally so I do not know much about the Vee other than I wanted...

Has anyone heard of a Fox RE-3 made by Dick Renard Racing? I just bought one pretty cheap but I can't find any info on the manufacturer other than a few race entries. Thanks - Marcus

I'm interested in finding a vintage vee to restore for my daughter to eventually race. I am currently running a FF with CVAR in my home state of Texas. Currently living in north Louisiana. Thanks for any help - Marcus I have made a purchase. Thank you all for the help. One of your tips led me to a c...
