£50.00+vat per hour, tick's over like standard and drive's fine.but it has still got a tiny flat spot just before it get's on cam.said it would not be worth the time to fix as it could go on for age's. set up rev limiter and could also compare speedo with correct speed.tried timing up and down etc, which moved the power a weeny bit up or down. slark speed racing is what they are called.

[grum]

is that at the flywheel or the wheels

[richy c]

what do you think

[graham John]

that is good useable power, what was the torque ?

[richy c]

199Lb torque

[RS MARTIN]

nice one richy- was it as good as sigma ?

[plentysideways]

199Lb torque

fair play, I reckon that torque figure will make it a real puller of an engine

[grum]

what do you think

flywheel ?

[richy c]

umm i've had this engine since 1992, just that it need new ring's, some bearing's, valve spring's and 4 valve's same cam.
