If you have your own 4X4 you can hire a guide for $10/hr. I spent 10 hours
in just one canyon & thought I was rushing it. There is a $50 fee for
overnighting. But the guide brings in he firewood & I believe drinking
water before hand & tends to the fire. Near as I can tell the guide is
primarilly to protect the residents and artifacts from yahoos.

A few years ago I past my trusty IIa on to my son (bought it new in '70) who has it out in Eugene Oregon. On the January trip out the Weber had some frosting problems (not in -13 Montana as you'd expect, but as we came down the Columbia Gorge into the warmer/wetter Portland weather). I left 'ol Lulubelle and the frosty Weber with Portland's resident Rover genius, Doug Shipman (Ship's Mechanical, 12755 NE Whitaker Way, Portland 97230, 503-252-5566) who fabricated this clever heat riser that solved the problem. You see... The stock LR intake/exhaust manifold set-up has it's own pre-heating set up. The manifolds join just under the carb to transfer heat up from the exhaust. A boxy connection in the casting and the heat sheild help the heat transfer. But years ago I installed some A-B headers that eliminated this connection. What Ship did was to tap a hole in the exhaust header pipe (I'm working from memory here) and run a small connection up to the intake manifold/carb (here's where my memory gets real fuzzy). I can't really remember how the connection was made at the carb.. But it worked. I'd call Ship. He could tell you. He's a very nice guy and has solved a lot of problems over the phone for me.

Regarding http://www.ExtremeTerrain.com/rover/html/scrapbook.html
Thanks for the pointer to "RoverWorld" Pat. I'm *so happy* that they think
it's okay to take my text and photo and use them in a commercial venture.
He doesn't even have the courtesy to directly credit me as the author,
Harry Alexander III as the photographer or to link to the page that it's
all ripped off from:
http://www.off-road.com/RoverWeb/Jeff-Rover/JeffsRover.html
This was my first WWW article. I didn't bother to indiciate Copyright on
the pages themselves--though under U.S. law, Copyright is implicit upon
creation--as I figured the text wasn't worth stealing. The "story" here is
really just a series of photo captions. I did put a copyright notice on
each of the indvidual photos--at least those that I had taken. The photo
that was used by Mr. Yu/Extreme Terrain was shot by Harry Alexander using
my camera. Rather than "copyright" it for him I just indicated that he'd
taken the photo. Now days I'm a little smarter and copyright notice appears
on the bottom of each page I produce. I will now go back and attach
appropriate notice to these pages.
I think that I have always been extremely generous with my work--allowing
it to be published in club and parts suppliers' newsletters without
compensation--all I ask is that they ask permission and credit me
appropriately. I have also happily granted several enthusiasts WWW sites
license to use my photos. But this is just plain slimey and doesn't leave
me with a warm fuzzy feeling regarding Extreme Terrain's business practices.
Whether the use of my work is legal (under fair use doctrine or because I
foolishly didn't attach notice of copyright) or not, it irks me that they'd
use it without seeking permission--particularly without a credit or link to
the original body of work. Furthermore, I think that there's an unspoken
implication that I have some relationship with his company --"Family
Scrapbook"--as a client. Read it here now--I don't endorse this company and
I'm not planning on doing any business with them in the future--other than
to send a letter requesting that he remove my image and words from his WWW
site... (Gee, I don't think I ever signed a model release either.)
Anyhow, I've left things with my "attorney". (I think he's Samoan or
something.) Who knows, maybe there will be Official Land-Rover Picnic sets
underneath all of our trees this Christmas.
All joking aside, I ask for your support in not patronizing a company who
thinks it's okay to use other people's work without permission and/or
appropriate compensation.
Regards, RoverOn.

Sure, I have one new one left that I am keeping for a pattern......
I can draw up the pattern on CadKey if you can digest the file...
the inboard end is held on with a hose clamp, the outboard ends use a
metal retaining plate that resembles the SB seal retainer, easy enough to
fabricate. I could also provide a scale drawing hardcopy for an SASE.

Hi Dave,
I'll second that. We sold our SI diesel conversion (hacked about and VERY
well used, 6 (at least) different colours, leaked like a sive, draughty,
noisy...) when our daughter was born. Bought a '72 Rangie instead, bigger,
quieter, newer, all the same colour, more comfortable, (marginally) better
off-road, etc., etc... BUT I MISS that SI so bad it hurts sometimes. We did
some awsome trips in it and now all we have is memories and some photos. At
least ask your kids before you sell it. You may be suprised at the depth of
attachment they have formed!
Cheers, Graham.
