Re: Big bang
One you recommended to me Jim, Richard Morena built it about 10 years ago I bought it from a air cooled garage in London who swapped it for a 1600cc normal engine splitty being used as a wedding limo
and gave it back to him for a refresh its got scat crank, CB performance turbo, heads, 2110cc deep sump usual stuff I put on a charge cooler, and trigger wheel ignition using a Ford coil and sensor & megajolt box. Also got a cogbox gearbox with super diff, side plate etc
Got to say its been a very expensive club to try and join
Still got your steering kit on works well

Re: Big bang
Why only 17`s? Have you had it on a rolling road?
My 1914cc did 15`s, I'd expect yours to be into the 14`s...
Are you going to be at Vic Fm or Stanford Hall?

Re: Big bang
There must be loads more potential in that engine. I launch like a real girl, almost off idle as I don't want to break stuff on the start line, full oak interior, camping kit in there too. My power tops out at around 5200rpm, moderate boost levels.
The engine used to do 17's all day long, then remapped it, then dropped to 15's by gaining an extra 78bhp! I thought it was quick before, but it really woke up after the last remapping session.

Re: Big bang
Isn't it full EFI? Just the ignition then?
There's a website that lists loads of rolling roads, just phone around. There are loads of them hidden away too.
