I really would like to have an MGA = Flash-to-pass switch but very hard to find and expensive when you do: https://mgaguru.com/mgtech/accessories/at113.htm

Steve,
Instead of trying to eke more power out of those lorry motors, drop in a V8 and your passing opportunities will increase immensely.

My switch is a three-position one: Up for high, center for low and down is spring-loaded for flash-to-pass. Because it's in the O/D switch hole it doesn't need to be long. It operates relays.

This is in response to Steve G's question about the original BN2 clutch lever pivot, welded on stud versus a Jule frame. The master cylinder holding bracket that came with my kit doesn't come close to fitting due to inadequate clearance between the edge of the oil pan where it mates with the block. I'll be doing something similar to Dave Deamer most likley but I will talk to Pete Delaney tomorrow and see what he says.

Welcome to the dark side! I put a small clock (from a motorcycle shop) in place of the O/D switch. I was thinking of leaving the switch in place, and labelling it 'Nitrous'...

I always wanted a "Passenger Ejection Seat" switch.

This is better. I can carry extra missiles and a lot easier than replacing a seat every time I use it.
