imi Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 not a fan of orange cars tbh, however this one is special; perhaps more to the fact that it did originally belong to the tango man and then to our resident American Looking forward to seeing this project develop....... imi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagman Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Well Jamie I rebuilt the engine on that and I can tell you it was a proper job,some external parts may have been altered /added , the head was also a nice job too- I would not have expected any issues even if ragged silly - top job was done mate ...

jagman Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Every component was weighed, and balanced across the engine,the head was done by my mate, who does all the radical race engine heads, it's a one off , it was cc,d, valve seats done to maximise heat distribution and flow, ported to speed up spool ( which it did) real old school craftsman. I always expected the engine to go long and strong,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
