The Pikey Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Brilliantly smooth engine but only 245 bhp. It turns out I was flogged the wrong pistons. Email sent to the supplier but it's all gone quiet Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinH Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Well that's not bad for an 'only' Jason. What engine did you start with and what spec was the build/upgrade. Apologies if you have already posted that. Any lessons learned other than check the spec of the pistons when delievered! Martin Damn Blackberry keyboard!

The Pikey Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Quoting Q102: Jason, I suppose it is more of a question of how much power it should have 🤔 260-270 is where I hoped it would have been. Not long until the YOB is on the rollers. Is it time for Mark to open the book on what the power figures will be? Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannylt Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 We went through at least 3 versions; that first one was a custom fabricated manifold, and we spent hours trying different trumpets and spacer lengths on the dyno. The latest ones on my 2.2 engine are the RaceCo spec Jenveys - lots more revs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
