Delbert Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Lil is on a rolling road tomorrow having my ability to set twin carbs dizzies and gaps checked Now when she was built the output at the flywheel was 150bhp I did some cleaning and a fiddling over the winter , added a 3:1 flow manifold and twin box zorst ass opposed to the cast Iron 6:1 and single box So what number will I get I'm hoping for 135 at the wheels Dolly mixtures to the closest Leave no more than a footprint, take no more than a photo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Birtwisle Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Looking at tomorrows weather forecast, you'll need to replace the wheels with water screws. 138 at the wheels is my guess.

Delbert Posted September 5, 2008 Author Share Posted September 5, 2008 and the jury is in and within 0.2 of the answer is Mrs GTD So is it Dollys or Biscotti for Climping Apparently not a bad result for a 40 yr old engine , just needs a refresh a bit earlier than planned and Peter Burgess rollers are by his own admission lower than some others but at £60 inc the set up it sets the baseline So its the Downton spec in the spring (all doanations accepted ) Anyway Ugly Betty is starting a new series so all is good 😬 Leave no more than a footprint, take no more than a photo Edited by - Delbert on 5 Sep 2008 21:13:39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Village Idiot Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 😬Ahh I'm so pissed that I was so close but not quite, so 1.5 horses out, I wish I had got it just to see Del's face and sending lit'll ol' moi the dolly mix - it would have killed him twice over once that the hp was lower than he said, twice to send Dolly to me Oh well next time eh 🤔 Dicks (ps good game Del when's the next 🤔) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs GTD Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Well as a true veggie, I probably shouldn't eat dolly mixtures - how about a glass of fizz in a fortnight's time? “May you - work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, dance like no-one's watching, screw like it's being filmed and drink like an Irishman” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
