Great job very similar to my engine but I put a 123 distributor in mine. Do you think the MSD Billet with MSD 6A control box is a better option? Also dose the deep sump help? Also how do you get on with that clutch in I bullsed up a bit by just putting a lux in I think it dose slip a bit.

For a mild street engine a stage 1 pressure plate and dalken disc is all you need. Donā€™t worry about an MSD the 123 is perfect for what you have. And as for a deep sump they DONā€™T result in a cooler engine, if your engine is running hot and everything is all ok you need an external oil cooler

Oh great thanks for the info. Luckily enough it doesnā€™t seem to run hot at all but still thinking of putting an external oil
Cooler on. Iā€™ve ordered the clutch and plate you suggested šŸ‘

Have you got an oil temp gauge? Have you done any long trips on a hot day yet?

Yeah I have a oil gauge I drove down to Cornwall from Shropshire last July, think the hottest it got was 110 on a long hill on the motor way.
I will put a oil cooler on but wanted to wait until I could have the time to do it probably as I do long trips to Spain even Italy.
To be honest I donā€™t really drive it hard say 65 mph tops usually happy to cruise at 55 , the main reason for the 2010 was easier to drive in todayā€™s traffic and to get up hills.

110c I assume? That definitely needs an oil cooler then! Wants to between 80-90c. Donā€™t forget to use a thermostatic sandwich plate on filter housing when you do.

Sorry I donā€™t agree you should never run a aircooled engine too cool. 80c would definitely be too cool. 90 to 100c is ok and if itā€™s hot up a long hill 110 is totally fine. šŸ‘

I saw 120 on the way down to Cornwall from Gloucester last year on the hottest day, driving at 60. I was quite worried, but only because I'd fitted a temp gauge!! I have an oil cooler, but it wasn't working, I've now hopefully fixed it so looking forward to testing it. Instructions say the fan comes on at 85C.

Yeah 120c is worrying but slow down to 50 and if it goes down every thing is working ok. Iā€™m sure people have different ideas but I think 100c ish is a good temperature
 
Decided to update this thread. My 2110 was a powerful and dependable power plant but I had plans to go the nitrous oxide route so I pulled it end of last summer to make the required alterations to run gas. After a few cups of tea and a chat with Hector I decided to just build a new engine for that rather than adapt 1 šŸ¤£ soā€¦..
