BDR engines


Badger Bill

Recommended Posts

The RST V8 is priced at 18k without a blower, thats circa 350 bhp. With a blower it's 500bhp but don't know price.

 

So on a price per BHP, the RST V8 wins. but it hasn't the pedigree the BD engine has. Nearly 40 years old and still winning competions.

 

Norman Verona, 1989 BDR 220bhp, Mem No 2166, the full story here

There's nowt wrong wi' York Norm! *smile*

 

Shall I tell you an interesting story? Are we sitting comfortably? Right, I'll begin....

 

A mate of owellys and mine is building a mk2 Escort rally unit as a replica of his dads old RAC-entered beastie, and very nice it is too! It has one of his dads old BDA's being installed as we speak. His dad has a fine collection of many BDA's for the chap in question to have a go at when he blows this one up!!!!! *eek*

 

But believe me, it WILL get used..... 😬 *thumbup*

We went to a track day early last year at Langbaurgh (Teesside Autodrome) and the chap in question brought alond his battered old oil-burning autotest Mini. He seriously embarrased most of the NE-Elise club! *wink*

 

We will mend it We will fix it...

I'm guessing that Rossybee is on his way to hell - though why he should visit York on the way is a bit of a mystery...

 

Well if he is coming from the North he would go through York to get to Hull and Back

 

 

Ok , its warmed up so I'll leave the coat it saves time

 

The light at the end of the tunnel is probabally an on coming train *eek*
