spec

2.2 pinto
Off set crank
205 block
Forged pistons
crossflow rods
ultra light flywheel
ap 71/4 " clutch
Big wing sump
Injection race head
HT2 cam
Twin 50 webbers
Custom inlet manifold

All adds up to 211 bhp at 7400 rpm maxing out 8100. on the dyno
Hoping it may make a bit more on the rollers.

All right then:
1790 cc BDE spec all steel wetsump-engine, BLF14 Fast Road/Rally cams, adj. cam pulleys, 45DCOE Weber carbs, K&N filters, Aldon dizzy, Lumenition electronic ign, Tony Law exhaust, steel flywheel, 7,25 inch Tilton rally clutch behind that is a Quaiffe 4-speed SC/CR gearbox, single-piece prop, 4-linked Atlas axle with a 4.11 LSD.
Sort of the same spec as the Historic rallycars build by Sutton except for the cams, mine are FR/Rally ones, which do not make as much BHP as the L1's in Blomqvists car for example (did 180 bhp at 7000 rpm on the dyno) but it pulls from idle and has a flat torque-curve from 3-7000 rpm which makes it very drivable.

Grtz, Leon.

[Dave1800BDA]

Leon, that sounds nice there, I'm sure that would sound the biz at full chat, I'm sure 7000rpm is a bit conservative eh!!!

Darran, again this is some spec there.

cheers Dave.

We do not have original RS1800s over here (Holland).
Mine is a flat front X-pack RS2 on the registration documents, but its full Gp4. Think I have shown Dave1800BDA some pics of the car some time ago.

Yes Dave, it sounds very nice but I have to keep friendly with the neighbours ! The Sutton cars make 205-210 bhp from 1800 cc, so 180 bhp isn't that bad for a road car.
My engine starts the first time without stalling, alot different from the dry-sump-BDA in the Sutton car at last National Day. Some person (don't know his full name but I call him Dave Rose) stalled it about a dozen times trying to put it thye car in the garages ....

Grtz, Leon.
