    If you search bill richards racing it says the 8 port car currently has 172 bhp and he is going 16v next year a development head in conjunction with KAD but luckily that puts him in the class above:D

    Mine certainly wont be making 170bhp ,it made 113bhp 96lbft before but there were a few problems with it ,bent exhaust valve and cam timimg issues,its had many little tweaks with the rebuild so hoping for a bit more but we will be lucky to see 140 let alone 170
