They just split down the centre bores at high revs . Been told by top engine guru that no pinto/cosworth iron blocks on a 93mm bore can take 8000+rpm for long before spliting . I really need an alloy block or a Julian Godfrey rally-x block conversion too fix the problem for good but that's big money . I need to sell some stuff or win the lottery really . :rolleyes:
