Have you ever seen a 45 rpm idler wheel for these machines? I recently picked up a Rek-o-kut Challenger lathe which looks nearly identical to your Imperial, I’d bet that they use the same idler wheels. I’ve heard that 45 rpm idler wheels exist for these machines, but I haven’t yet been able to find one. Thanks for the video!
@@bryanbarger Wow, yep, I did some Googling and according the people in the lathetrolls forum, you’re correct, it’s part number tr-103. That may come in handy as I search for one, thanks! Do you still have the lathe in this video?
@@bryanbarger I’ve been searching for that 45 rpm idler wheel with absolutely no luck. I’ve been thinking about fabricating one myself, but I need to find someone who: a. owns one of these idler wheels, and b. is willing to measure it and send me the dimensions. Some photos would probably be a huge help as well. Is there any chance that you’d be able and willing to assist me in this endeavor?
Crappy Russian copies GEC KT 66S will make the amp sound right.... And they last forever... Those Russian things r v unreliable as well as sounding like transistors... But what does it matter playing anti Establishment Taylor Swift or Die Straits
I always try to blip before letting out. In some cases where i dont have the time for a blip ill actually clutch brake. With the stock pedal arraignment, heel/toe is virtually impossible. I need a throttle pedal extension.
@@Dansstang roughly 380. Bilstien Clubsport coilevers, eurocode bars, alum subframe and verkline front arms. I believe i couldve been much quicker here. Was my first time on this course and was wet in the am. Hoping to get under 1:30 next time there
Hey, Brian. Nice video and some great, consistent driving. I was in that same run group with you, which is cool. Hope to see more videos of these events.
Those EF86 are from Cifté ...............Good tubes ..................also EF86 Telefunken and the Z729 GEC......... Philips group and Brimar..............
@@bryanbarger Thanks! I'm going to make a few adjustments to get better low-speed traction up front and lower the wing. It came with that tall mount, but I found out it is designed to perform better when lower.
