Just checking, much easier to upload images..😀 smilies are crap though 😠

First outing with new cam gave stronger top end. Changed diff oil to higher slip variety and the car got very out of shape after each shift, is this a coincidence?

Latest madness, in order to run MS109 race fuel and hence raise the boost, I fitted this. It's a 2 gal foam filled tank connected to the fuel system by 3 way valves and with a separate drain. the LP fuel pump from the main tank is also switched. So now I can run race fuel at the strip, then drain it, flush the system and be back on road fuel in about 10 minutes. RR session next to set boost levels and check AFRs

Good to see that you are still trying to go quicker Steve!

Latest dyno run. 215bhp then 277.5 with NOS, plus 288 lbf ft torque. The power held up well beyond 6500revs. Took 3 ratchet straps and four people sitting in the car to stop the wheelspin!

Well deserved Steve !

 

[V6Minor]

Congratulations!! Really enjoyed following this project, going to be doing a similar engine for my old split screen minor that I don't want to cut up, based on a maestro 1275 A plus block.

Met up with a friend at the Pod

 

[Flying Phil]

Nice to see two together!.....and well done on your new PB!

 

[steve1275]

Too much of this... led to this

sympathetic back axle plate ?

 

[Flying Phil]

I know that back axle feeling! With my BGT Pro Rover, the twist off the line was due to a 4 bar link set up.....with only 3 attached to the axle!
