[two benders steve]

hi i've just done a deal on a new engine for my bay it's 2110cc BUT is running street eliminator heads and comp ratio of 9:1 any one think i'm guna get away with it or am i just stupid ? :shock:

I say try it - what have you got to loose?

You are going to have the steering and ride and brakes spot on bud before any serious hike in power.Dont mean to be blunt or anything.But a cracker lacker hype in power is like a kick in the arse when unloaded in one of these babys (type 2).Ive been in some VERY scary rides where folks have compromised on the basics in the head long rush for more grunt :shock:

just rubber from my tyres and the smile off sum saxo driving chav ! 180 bhppppppppp !

 

[two benders steve]

yep your right i've already rebuilt the front suspension and fitted csp discs , but i know what you mean as i used to drive an oval with a puny 150 bhp ! that had had discs and suspension done and that used to s"*t me up, so it's guna be mental in a early bay !

 

[NADZ]

Mental is not even in the area bud.By the way how solid is the old girl.The idea of that clobber pushing me in the arse would ***** the life out of me.

[maddog]

Shouldnt be a problem at all!!!

Im running same kind of power and as long as you've got yourself some decent cooling then it should be fine.
180bhp - 2110...ohh.........must be big cam/big carbs i guess :wink:

USB???

If you are using a fully merged sysytem then you'll have to modify the support bar.
