In the Summer 2006 issue of Fast Ford
Jano's S1 with a standard head, bottom end and capacity did a 5.80 second 0-60 and a 1/4 mile of 14.54@102.37 mph with a full interior which compared well to Ollie Meredith's S1 which has a 1.9 CVH which is stated at being 320 BHP and this car was slower 0-60 than a car with a standard head and block with a time of 6.32 seconds and slightly faster 1/4 mile of 13.98@114.98 although this car has the weight advantage of being a stripped out racer

Im personally more interested in performance stats rather than numbers.
which is y im asking for performance times as well

oh and Jano might have put the power down better but look at the terminal speed difference between the 2....NO disrespect to Jano as he has built a SUPERB car but just showing that the terminal speeds indicate that Ollies car has a fair bit more power than Jano's car
