Rae Davis, in his historic racing A35,claims 135bhp from 1293cc with twin SU,s, 5 port head but free cam. He reckons it runs to 9200rpm and average build cost is £15k.
Then you have to add a gearbox - another £4K.
He can race and beat Jaguars with this.

Exactly tadge, so 140 out of a smaller engine seems mathematically unlikely!

140 out of a hillclimb 5-port was about right when looking back at terminal speeds compared to the 16v motors now.

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem.

As far as I know 120 bhp is about all the rest of the field have. (a series class4 anyway)

I will log and share the results from the back to back tests yes

Don't forget the KAD engine is running without an alternator and fan!

That bring the power down a bit at the top end. Probably down to around 100bhp.
