Milton Keynes

Just had the car set up at Baldwins.
8lb - 122 horses at 4900,
10lb - 144 horses at 5000.
Engine Spec:
28cc Benross worked head
Omega forged pistons
266 cam
Large Charge cooling system
Rest of engine is the usual stuff.
We didn't go any higher on the boost cos the engine hasn't been run in for more than 1/2 hr, and when the car was on the rollers for an 1 hr the exhaust valves were very slightly being pinched buy the guides.
So after a good run in all should be fine, and should be more than capable of pushing some big figures.
It drives fantastic as a road car, so would like to BIG up the BENROSS for his quality work which shows in a bloody good engine with good figures :)

Matt The turbo set up is in my other project, not the speedster, that will stay N/A for a while yet.
I wanted to get the engine set up straight away, as I was concerned about it misfiring & over fueling and generally running very bad. Aswell as a lack of knowledge / confidence with turbos.

Yep they are some good figures. Even for Baldwins Rollers.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.
