So it's not gonna be a 1.9 G60 anymore but a 1272cc 8v ripper with nearly 140bhp. Going back to a small block! 😱😂

Corrosion, bent valves due to poor packaging, holes in the inlet manifold and cracks in the head. Just my luck. So when I get a chance I'll be dropping in to see Dave (the man in the shed) Crissel to get a telling off for not putting the G60 back in and and to see what he thinks of this small block head & manifold. I'll let you all know how that goes down!!
In closer inspection of the engine, I've discovered some issues.

I much prefer small blocks. In the Derby I have the last of the 1272's so it had a blistering 70 odd bhp from the factory. Chucked on a good manifold and exhaust and twin 40's and it pulls hard in every gear and runs out of revs in 4th
My golf has the 1400 16v twin cam on bike carbs and managed 147 on the dyno.
I'd love that rocker cover and air box for the Derby! Git
Looking forward to lots of progress
