blimey thats alot what bhp is that? just wondering what sort of time with this set up(taken from the sellers advert)
This engine was originally stripped to a bare block, cleaned, honed out and refaced 5 thou.The crank, rods, pistons and pulleys were then all balanced together. It was hten rebuilt with new gaped rings, KS main and big end bearings, along with a new oil pump and pickup.

The head was reconditioned with high lift cams and was skimmed to up the compression ratio.

Then just to make sure it was spot on mechanically, I took it the carb experts at Wilshers Garages (well known for their Mini Miglia efforts) and had it rolling road tested and tuned up. I was expecting about 180-185 bhp but was pleasantly surprised to receive it back with 205bhp.


all this means nothing to me
but i am going to try and tune it myself just need to know what to get!!
