I am in the process of being quoted to have some new Rochdale badges being made. The only difference from the original will be that they will be stick on and not have pins on them. But that should be no problem.
I also have on order new chassis plates.
Out of interest do you require the twin carbs as well on the intake manifold, I bought a complete engine with the view to put in my car but not sure as yet whether I shall put it in.
Regards
John |

Thanks John. Please put me down for two badges - sounds great.
I have the carbs, so only require the standard inlet and outlet manifolds, as my car has a non-standard setup based on C/T London performance manifolds Circa 1960's that are unfortunately damaged. I am currently trying to negotiate with someone, but does not appear to be going anywhere.
Many thanks |

What is the damage to the performance manifold etc. we have a full CNC machine shop and ally welding facilities, perhaps we could help. _________________ Working to increase the profile of Rochdale Cars |

Can I jump on the badge bandwagon? I am not even sure if my Ph I should have any, but even if not I would want a couple to save what must be a constant barrage of "what is it mate?". |

When I get the badges and vin plates in stock I will put another post on the web for all those who need them.
The way it is going might have to order more than I thought

Thanks Keith - I have already given them away, as I am going for as original as I can get to on the project. Thanks though - useful to know... |

Another thought if it helps.
I have the pattern to modify MGB tubular exhaust manifolds to fit the phase 1 Olympic, we have done this on several cars and it does work well, the MGB twin SU inlet manifold is also a straight fit on the Riley 1.5 / Wolseley 1500 engines.
If you go to Owners cars, scroll down till you come across my Phase 1 MFO 123 then mouse over and left click you can see an example of the MGB exhaust manifold (unmodified) on one of my engines. _________________ Working to increase the profile of Rochdale Cars |

That's a great tip Keith. Many thanks |
