  • 1971 Jaguar E-type 2+2: Where do I find wheel information?

    I moved categories for this one.

    I'm going to do some steering/suspension work on an E-type; a four-wheel alignment and a tune and balance for its 72-spoke wheels. The problem is the wheels are chrome knockoffs, and I can't find any information on how to properly re-torque them when I get them back on the car.

    I have the Jaguar factory service manual, but it says nothing beyond "remove road wheels" for any procedure. According to the manual, the torque spec for the wheels is 50-60 lbs.ft., but from what I've read on various forums, I'm having a hard time believing it.

    Can some of you British car lovers help me out?

  • What do you think of Alfa Romeo's return to the U.S.?

    In a recent press release, Alfa Romeo announced that it would return to the U.S. market for the 2008 model year.

    For all you Alfa Romeo lovers out there, how do you feel about this? Do you think U.S. production will be delayed again, even with the official announcement from the factory?

    And what of the possibility that, even if they do return, Alfa will not import their 8C Competizione supercar?
