Dunc

sounds like the very plan. its that kind of thinking that saves the cash for carbs and pistons and stuff

its never going to see more than about 300 BHP if i'm very lucky, any more and half the gearbox will be filings.

all i want to do is get a decent chirp of (both) tyres, annoy the saxo boys and maybe beat the recognised off the showroom floor 14.2 quarter for my car with a 6 pack of carbs and little else different from standard

should be possible if i do me new Old engine right, keep off the pies get rid of my 2.92 ratio.

HUGE thanks to Ray at Hauser Racing (01933 682500).
For lightning-fast service at a really good price, for an excellent neat job of sorting out my messed-up axle and for hardly taking the mick at all ;)
