cheers gents. im not going for silly power, 180bhp would be the target to begin with i guess, but thats just a figure plucked from thin air that i think would be nice power level for the car. nothing to serious but should go well at that power. im going to do some research into the pulley sizes and try and get it making around 6/7psi at 6000rpm. it should be safe at that with standard compression and ignition timing, assuming i can get the fueling side of things set up ok.

me and 3 mates got the keys to our new garage last night



needs a bit of minor work here and there and a good clean but its got a huge pit, woping great big steel work bench and vice build in at the back, hot and cold running water, an oil burning heater thrown in. can fit 6 cars at a squeeze or 4 with loads of space to work on them and weve got 5 car spaces outside. its on our doorstep and works out to roughly £100 each a month with bills etc, so proper work can begin soon!
