A lovely example of bull**** baffles brains, or 'obfuscation'.
What you did was trot out a lot of fairly obvious but scarcely
relevant guff to hide the fact that you were talking ********.
Everyone can see through this sort of thing you know. Try to
remember that amongst the members of this group there are people
who have had a working lifetime of detecting bull****.

Bill Don't be silly. Look it up.

You are making a fool of yourself.

No I'm making a fool of you; which is an easy task.

I used to respect your knowledge, Bill.
Its sad


I never respected yours, because so often you were proved wrong.

Exactly as I said. Ford competition grade was a casting.

Seems odd. A casting is rarely as strong as a pressing, like for like.

Probably the casting was much thicker metal.


I suppose an early car only had the one pulley so how much space it took
up not a problem.

But I really can't remember seeing a cast pulley on any car - even more so
if a performance part where weight is important.


To the untrained eye, this looks like a casting and weighs 0.2kg
or 7.oz

Whether that weight is impressive or not, I dunno

From memory (very long term) and a quick look at Google images
pressed steel pulley wheels came in two or more parts - two dished
circular blanks which were riveted or welded together. The above
wheel looks to be one piece, to me at least with no obvious joins
and no rivets or similar holding the two halves together.

Although on second thoughts if it was the other way up maybe the
rivets are on the uderside in the photo...

If only Sainsbury opened at 7 like all the others

Yes - at one time riveting was popular. later cars with more than one belt
often had the pulleys bolted to a boss.

The one on my Anglia that fell apart was tack welded.
