[image: ???] Installed a map and got my friend's Merlin Megajolt up and running. 2.1 pinto like mine but on 40DCOEs. It is not running the best he has had it in 17 years! Tried a new set of idle jets in my webers 45DCOEs. I currently have 60F8 in, but it is running rich although spitting back. So I tried some 50F9 jets a friend had. The result was that we had to open up the throttle plates to just the right place under the first progression hole, but I think they were too far the other way and now too lean. The thing we did discover whilst playing with things was the idle mixture screws are knackered, so I have ordered a new set up and gone back to the 60F8 ones. I am hoping that the Megajolt will allow for a good advance on idle and give a leaner jet to work without spitting. Picked up my replacement gearbox so I can actually start that swap job I have been talking about for 18 months... I also cleaned up a drill press that was my father-in-laws before he passed away.

The other problem I had a year or two ago was the rubber hose between the filler cap and the plastic pipe was totally perished. Clearly either not a proper fuel pipe, or not resistant to road salts. That was the first fuel leak I had, and it pee'd all over the filling station floor when I was filling it up. I'm not sure where the pipe came from, but Quantum did supply one with the kit originally. You can check yours just by squeezing it from inside the wheelarch. When I did you could see all the cracks, right through to the middle. I bought another 2 hose with a shallow bend in it straight away from Merlin Motorsport. That one is still fine. The engine thing is getting a bit off topic, but my thoughts if you are looking at a Rover V8 then I'd probably go for the Borg Warner T5 box as used in V8 TVRs (Griffith, Chimaera, V8S). Bellhousings are pretty easy to come by, and I think the T5 has the same bolt pattern as the Ford T9, but don't quote me on that. It is very compact and light, and can take the torque a lot better than a type 9 box. People sell them on PH - try this link:http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/forum/viewthread.php?tid=160607 Note on the T5 that there are a number of different locations for the gear stick. One might suit the hole in the Xtreme tunnel better than others. I can't be more help than that I'm afraid. For loads of information try the RHOCar website. For me the perfect engine for the Xtreme is a Duratec 2 litre. Very light, and 180bhp on throttle bodies and Omex with no other mods! The V8 is as heavy as a Pinto, too torquey by half for such a light car, and compromises the chassis too much. If only I had £3k I'd put a Duratec in myself.

[Quantum Owners] Re: Xtreme master cylinder fixings

[Quantum Owners] Re: Xtreme resale values
2nd hand values are always difficult to judge. When i made a half hearted effort in selling mine last year, I had 1 inquiry but no follow up. I do hope that the Xtreme on pistonheads sells quickly, so the value of Xtremes isn't set by this. I think your expectations on value are about right, however there are some good bargains of other marques out there. I couldn't sell my Xtreme for the price of the one on Pistonheads, it's worth more to me than that. I may readvertise mine in the not too distant future and see what happens. However, I would need something else to fuel my petrol head pashion (or pay a chunk of the mortgage off, but that'd be far too sensible ;-)) Good luck with the sale. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Quantum Owners Group group.

[Quantum Owners] Re: Another Xtreme on the road.
Mines at 135bhp with a 2.1 pinto, you should of bought mine !! IIRC, the ride heights should be 6.5 at teh rear (measured on the chasais rail just in front the rear wheel arch and 6 at the front (measured just behind the front wishbone). As for sealing the door, I find a plastic bag wedged between my arm and the gap seems to do the job perfectly ! As for running hot, I have been thinking of putting a hole in teh bonnet, but haven't got around to it, mine sits at 90 degrees and will go up to 100 if sat in traffic on a hot day. Another option is to wrap the exhaust in that bandage looking stuff (don't know the technical name). A shallow sump is probably a better option than a sump gaurd.

[Quantum Owners] Re: Winter upgrade list grows longer...
I'd be inteested to see how the diff swap goes, I have a sierra LSD and driveshafts ready to be collected, but unsure if it's worthwhile. As for the bell housing, it does fit, but with absolute minimal clearance. Mine does rub on the tunnel every now and again. You will also find out that the holes around the starter motor in the spacer plate between block and housing don't line up, I just cut that section of the spacer off ! As for the clutch, I just madeup a small plate to support the cable where it enters the housing. Go easy on tightening the bolts into the housing, they do round off quite easily ! just have a few nuts and bolts just in case.
