    Re: Guy Croft

    Nice touch Norm. Thanks for doing that.
    I never met him but found his book very informative.
    Passed it on when my old Volumex went so that someone else could benefit. Of course could do with it back now having acquired a 2 litre twink with the Allora. I suspect I will have to invest heavily to get another copy!

    Thanks very much David. In the meantime keep them under lock and key with the family silver. Have you seen the asking price on ebay!?
    Speaks volumes for the mans reputation I'd say.

    By way of an update Guy's wife Gloria has now taken over the business and can supply parts for twin cams from Guy's extensive stock. Gloria hasn't got Guy's experience but she has been very helpful and was able to get a manifold made for me.
    So if you need twincam bits she is well worth contacting - you can reach her through the GCRE forum.
