cheers all - it's actually higher than I thought.
288.2bhp @ 5864rpm
265.8lb/ft @5403rpm
Torque comes in nicely and holds it. Rather than just a big spike in the middle, drives really well. Shame graph only goes to 6120 as it's still not dropping power as the line goes off the graph.
Big ups to:
Mark Wright
Karl Norris
Engine Advantages
Without these guys I wouldn't have got it all sorted.

cheers all. I've had the car 4 years now. I need a change. I fancy a year off from cars now. Maybe an Escort Cossie next year. Going to save the insurance money/tax etc towards it.
I'm soooo happy that everything is finally sorted. I never thought I'd actually get there!

yep 100% sorted it was the inlet valve not seating on number 2 I think. Glad it's sorted. Shame it wasn't picked up earlier but was obvious when changing the valve springs.
Cheers for all your help Karl with the Cam/turbo etc. Very pleased with your recommendations.

Great figures.
Has the car definitely been sold? Or are you still looking for a buyer?
I'm not offering, just cannot believe this car didn't sell before.

Never really advertised it properly because had a problem at 5800rpm which is sorted now. Car is still for sale but someone is interested and wants to view. I'm an honest person and didn't want to try and hide the problem. All sweet now though
