Jimbo, your first reply shows you don't know as much as you probably think...and i'm no expert myself!

On the other hand at least you replied lol

No need for Rods below the belt comments either, but we've come to expect that from him as he's like that and loves getting people to bite.....his car bores the fuck out of me now and luckily it's never working long enough for me to be bothered.

My own take on it is that if you want a nice fast reliable road car then get a T34 on a standard engine and head...maybe with a little porting. It won't make 400bhp but it'll still be much nicer to drive than a 420bhp T38 powered car ( although not quite as quick once past 70mph. )

Even better would be a small GT30 as mentioned above!
