Default So i wondered why we have...

..so many non Ford owners here

Cosworth and more than 340bhp is a BIG NO NO No matter what you do they will break if used to full potensial.

Cancel ALL competitions and lets just talk ASS dyno like some...including me..atleast our cars keep together due to no power ROFL...and i wondered why Karl never runs his car...he cant it WOULD break FACT.

...the only fly in the ointment is Rodneys Saff Why does that stay together whilst every other tuners cars break?...BECAUSE you have to have a BIG budget and not cut corners it seems.

Are MAD are in the real world?.......food for thought!

Doug stirlings did 28K IIRC on last engine, and no reason to suppose it wont last just as well on the new one.

Mike Raindbirds is around 450 isnt it? and thats very reliable.

Lots of other people with reliable big power cossies too, cant see what the topic is on about, unless you meant to title it "desperate hope to be controversial in the search of attention"

Rods car has a no limit budget like Martin Hadland....2 cars that are bullet proof it would appear!

I aint slating anyone..past all that....i am making this point...if you want 350bhp plus and you want to use it balls out and not to break you need a BIG budget...

Cosworth to a normal person is only reliable if you dont treat it like a bitch

Phil, im exactly the same in real life, if someone talks bollocks in real life i take the piss out of them for it just the same as on here, no difference at all.
The only people who ever seem to think different are purely you and dingy, when i met you the only thing spoken about was you asked me some questions about engine building which i answered, no room for taking the piss as they were sensible questions, and dingy never said anything to me or in front of me, so no opportunity for a pisstake there either.
Ask anyone who goes to the berks meet or croydon meet or any of the shows or ring trips etc who has met me and they pretty much all say that if anything im more pisstaking in real life.

If you ever actually stepped away from the keyboard and came to meets instead you would know this!

I think doug once had an engine (not the last one, but the one before that) where an injector clip came off, and it leaned out, which is a problem with 8 injector setups, and is why Doug now runs 4 injectors instead, so it will never happen again, so its a pretty pointless thing for you to bring up, its just you clutching at straws.


Its OBVIOUS what the score is with 400bhp+ cossie engines (or ANY other 200bhp+ per litre engine)
If its not done right, it wont last, and doing it right isnt especially cheap.

Thats just completely plainly obvious to anyone with even half a brain!

Phil, im never normally nasty to anyone on here, im only here to make friends, which is what ive certainly done, got load of great mates IRL who ive met through this site, i dont ever set out to fall out with anyone on here on in real life, I just crack a few pisstaking jokes, why on earth would doing the same in real life get my hands chopped off?

Dont be ridiculous.

The real world isnt the big scarey place full of scarey men you seem to think it is Phil.

Tisc Tisc..... At the end of the day if an engine is built properly then generally it can be very reliable. However the problems usually do come when corners have been cut. That is my take on it........

I cant believe this post,

Its a load of people arguing with Phil, about other peoples cars and engines.... a subject that neither party, Phil or the Defenders know 100% about anyway....

Surely its up to the people who own these cars, Karl, Rod, etc to take issue with Phil..

A private message to you NeilM

..i used to hate you so much that i even contemplated money changing hands if you know what i mean...but i found that it wasnt my job to judge you....it up to God....i put my trust that you will be judged fairly and not for what i personally think of you...i have no right to take Gods work into my own hands..if i did i'd be called Lucifer...and NOONE want to be that.

Bless you my brotha in this struggle we call life.
