The westfield i was looking at had a blackbird 1100 engine, don't know if they're good or bad though?!

most BEC use a direct drive off the normally bike sprocket so you use the bike gearbox which is far far quicker than a car gearbox setup

you pay your price when buying a westfield or such like planty of other kits out there like the MK indy & MNR vortex

bike engine are genuinely cheaper and take the abuse well
