    Yep I'm down with that. Have you got any idea yet how far above stock it's likely to run once you've got it together?

    No idea mate. Just doing what I can that is relatively cheap ie my time. To pay for a full gas flow is over £400. If this gives me a 3% power increase , I'll be happy. I can always backfit the big cams and carbs that you guys are gonna buy for me ?

    Looking good Megawatt. Not sure what your going to do with all the internals, but if your interested in getting anything polished or coated to reduce friction and get the most out of the engine/box give me a shout. It's what I do as a day job!
