Update Update Update

Well we managed to purchase a good base engine to start our build

We have bought an engine that has covered just 600miles, this has been purchased to take apart, make some adjustments then reassemble

The head has been ported but our engine builder (top head man) will further improve the head, he does some of the best heads in the business

We purchased the engine, Loom, Aftermarket management with water Injection

The engine spec is

Rover T16 at 86mm Bore
Arais Forged Pistons
160mm Pauter X Beam forged con rods
ARP Head Set & Rod Bolts
Ported and polished head (not enough) with Bronze guides &
GBE High Torque Cams
Piper Vernier Pullys
Aftermarket management with 3 way mapping selection and full loom
Aquamist Water Injection

Brett will rework the head to full race spec, dis-assemble the bottom end and reassemble and build with a 8:1 compression ratio
We are also fitting a gated, baffled sump, modifying the block with additional breathers
Lighten the fly wheel and fit our 4 Paddle AP Clutch

We will then fit our T34 but with a .63 instead of the .48

That should see us mid-to high 300s with matching torque figure, which should be fooking awesome in the 80kg goooooon
