A set of 3 HD8 carburetors on a Jaguar E-type 4.2 fully rebuilt. We’ve fitted new bushes and reamed them to size and replaced the spindles. The carbs were reassembled with all new components and gaskets, refitted to the car before it gets rolling road tuned. We can rebuild Webers too.
Rolling road tuning. Rover P6 and Triumph Vitesse
On the rollers today is Martin Blooms Rover P6 following an engine rebuild. At 750miles since the rebuild we tuned to 3500rpm. Once fully run in Martin will bring the car back to tune the top end. Richard Long of the Southern Classics Society brought along his Triumph Vitesse for a tune up.

ROLL CAGES – Custom made in house by CCK Historic
We are very pleased to announce a brand new service to CCK Historic. With the recent purchase of some specialist tube bending apparatus we are now able to offer complete custom roll cage manufacturing in house. Whether it is a simple roll over bar or hoop, a full 6 point MSA roll cage or something more complex we now have the facilities to meet those needs. Given our position in historic motorsport, where many older cars are not catered for with off the self products, this new service will only further our strength in a competitive industry. If you are thinking of racing something more unusual than a classic Mini Cooper, such as a Mk1 Turner or a Studebaker Hawk, or you just want to add door bars or a diagonal to your existing cage you now know where to come.
