All the best with it Dave. I hope it does the 200mph; would be awesome in a road car.
P.S How does it feel having a television channel named after you?

The development on mine will go into 2 engines Mark is building one is Daves. These things take time, we are not reading from a 1989 song sheet as most are

I could biuld Daves engine this week
, But I gave Dave the option of 2 diff compression ratio's 1 8-1 or the other 8.5-1 but I would only biuld the later after testing Rods at 8.5-1,
Dave agreed to wait as running the higher comp will have benafits but this would only be confirmed after testing Rods.

No I have another 800hp engine I am biulding but was quoted 12 weeks for a inlet the same as Rods,
They now have come up with one but 10days later I still dont have it
and it is holding the dummy biuld up on the car for the interccoler fab.

best so far is a 11.6 with full road trim and sub box
Not sure what power we had when l ran it at pod in April
But with extra power and it on 16" then we will see

Im sure with that sort of power you will do 10's easily on the 18's Dave sure Kev was doing 10's on 18" wheels with under 700 bhp years ago.
