dno what you done too it mate..
and ill i done was get rid of the magnex and put the supersprint centre and backbox on..

very very good power for a 'standard' engine

[hard_corejoeboy]

haha probs, plus you knew the car very well too
but very pleased with that figure.. other 16vs with similar spec were getting around the 105bhp atw figure, so about 120/125 atf..
so i think new mani and cams and shud see about 150 hopfully

cheers bud, as said above with it near standard, just supersprint centre and backbox, a bmc and pred am very pleased with it

[hard_corejoeboy]

I assume a vts is 120 bhp standard atf or is that a wheels figure?

[AndySAXOp]

Atspeed give atw figures standard vts are normal around 100 atw.

yea is 120atf as standard..
which is 100atw, and mine made 118atw, so 140atf

[AndySAXOp]

Give or take, Jamie just say 118 atw.

Very good, just sort out few of them oil leaks.

[AndySAXOp]

Well done on the figure mate shame we couldnt come herd it was good to always next time though

Whats your plans?

[hard_corejoeboy]

I would cam it and get a cage and some good tyres and go racing

and don't crash it cos i want it back lol

Seriously though to build a car to that spec would cost a fair whack.

[hard_corejoeboy]

Ooh and a 4-2-1 and maybe some bodies and you are done

yea shame cudnt pop down, but as you say, always next time
and well i wana sort the brakes, and need atleast an new upper engine mount, the amount of engine movement wasnt goood lol..
but yea wana sort brakes and get a 4-2-1, and a cage, and just get it out on track and enjoy it..
but may be losing job, which if i do, plans will be put on hold, or car possibly sold

not gna look into cams just yet mate, 4-2-1 will be only performance mod for a while, wana sort brakes, and as said above engine mount, then look into cage, then just get on track and enjoy it

[hard_corejoeboy]

Sounds good i think the sensible thing to do would be get the oil sorted, the mount and the brakes and get out and enjoy it.

If you do decide to sell though don't let anyone else buy lol
