Thats more like it, much more subtle! Think it might suit some fairly deep wheels that are similar to the original rears its wearing. Whats it got under the bonnet?

MrKing

Wheels are Merc Penta's, its a standard engine 24v Cosworth mated to a very rare MT75 V6 gearbox from Europe. Ran a 1/4 mile in 15.7 sec's before the following (i've not done a 1/4 with the below list):
Vectra Injectors
LSD
Weight reduction (sound deadening removed)
Stripped doors & hatch with plastic/perspex windows

ProjectBobcat

Quite a respectable time then Sorry about getting the wheels wrong.

klumpy

out of interest how much bigger are the BOB cams compared to the BOA ones?
my friend has bought some and visually the lobes are the same? im wondering if hes bought some BOA ones by accident

Bigger? im not sure actually mate, they may not have more lift, but rather duration/overlap could be different.

Rob,

I think they are stamped differently.... so when some one who knows what they're on about logs on im sure they will but you straight better than me!

Rob,

ok then mate its just ive heard a few people tell me that some of the BOBs has BOA cams from ford anyway and that they make no differance and some have told me that they make an extra 20bhp

Zetecfiesta

nice!

MrKing

M4tt274 - Yes gearbox has the xr4x4 bellhousing

Rob DOHC - thanks lamp post was recycled by the local p*keys, BOB cams are a possibility and i have some BOB heads so will look to do the change over one day.

She's "BarryBoy'd" back together ATM, though i do need to do it correctly (it looks ok - keeps the neighbours off my back) and the stops the scrapman knocking.

mk2 cossie

BOB cams have an extra .5mm of lift, but they need timing up properly to make the most difference

mt75 was fitted to lesser v6 engined euro granadas/scorpios, but not over here unfortunately

you should post u some pics of the "wicks" windows you have in the other doors mr King

MrKing

BarryBoy race mode



front end looking 'better' and also Race mode
Just see the flexi plastic in the windows (these are the race doors they come off and the tidy shiny greens go back on after race day's)

MrKing

was expecting some abuse for the "wickes" sponsorship! lol
