i rebuilt the engine for the kadett. has potential if he buys proper parts. need double valve springs, steel caps, solid lifters to make more/better use of it. its back in 18th of may, but hes got to ladder bar the rear. ran 15.4 at pv last year wit 4k rev limit. 140bhp at wheels, and car full of camping stuff. this year if runs i reckon a 12 maybe. should rev now to about 7.5k
he has a habit of just thrashing it. which pisses me off as when i rebuilt it previously in his nova, he thrashed it almost straight away. and i get accused of building shit engines. shame the fact he had mega worn bores and tops of pistons with shit load of dirt from the filter didnt help!
also did all the headwork on stoners LET, made 290bhp or so before wheels spun on rollers(at wheels), thats back thursday. should be good for 400-450bhp.(fly)
if need anything just shout
