Hi Jay, welcome to the club

Nice and handy for spares in Brum, as that's where most of the Ford FRP parts ended up.
At a certain Puma specialist
You get a discount there being a member of this club.

really hows that work just say im in this club?.. just need to sort cam belt out then im happy, so may go down to puma build and speak to them.

Not sure if you need a membership card or number etc.
I'm sure Lisa will tell you.

There was some question about the discount being removed, but I got it OK last time I bought some stuff from Alan.
Just give Alan a ring and ask for a price for a cam belt and how much discount for the RPOC

I have recently done my wheels black, much better for everyday use.

i no, i was waiting for it to go up, could you help me...
are the frp lump when driving slow?.. like at 30mhp just resting on the peddle, it just seems to be lumpy or like a missing some time, ant sure if they are all like it, it dont do it if i fall it, just resting on gas peddle. im goin to take it puma build in jan to have cam belt done and water pump n ide pulleys change. i just didnt no if this is how they are, thanks

Sounds like mine used to be after the cam timing had been done with a standard Puma timing tool
Rough, like it had been "chipped" or had "high lift" cams fitted.
But happy to scream up to the rev limiter in EVERY gear, only ever once in 5th

Mine wouldn't go around town in anything above 2nd as it missed so badly.

Now it's been done with a proper tool, I can drive around town in 5th, without too much trouble and it pulls all the way through the rev band, getting really exciting after 4K rpm.

5th yeh right lol ive only let go in 2nd and goes well, just once with mum in car lol. got told off 30th yr only lad with a toy it just seem to do it when resting foot, and it dont like 30mhp in 4th or 5th, as its sound like its missing. maybe it has been set worrg, it ant bad tho just like its missing, ide a bit lumpy, i best not rev it just in case it does damage to it. the lad i got it off didnt no if it has been done but as its 10 years old as getting it changed. thanks for that mate
