    I guess the service interval would be handy to know... Mind you most tend to get one per rally season so to speak, so you'd be good for about 5years of track days

    Oh my word, what have I done.

    Exhaust valve full lift



    Inlet valve full lift



    Together



    Oh I say!!



    Darren sent me this pic saying it doesn't look right!!! Bugger, as the engine's been with the guys nearly 18 months, I'd completely forgotten that I'd stolen the tensioner for the engine that's in the car now!!

    New tensioner and idler ordered from QED, along with camshaft bolts as I seem to have stolen them and used them for wheel bolts or something!!!

    Will be complete and under my stairs by Friday next!!!!

    Now just to find a gearbox.........................................

    Spoke to Quaife today, he said for the application and the use it'll last forever!! It's not like I'm doing drag racing with 10 inch slicks, I drive like a girl, just want that lever and full throttle gear changes. They're waiting for the castings to be completed, reckons they'll be available at the end of August!!!!!!!! Oh dear!!!

    Just reviewing the data from today at Cadwell.

    Iain managed a 1.43.85
    I managed a 1.51.81

    Only another 1.81 seconds to find and I'll be at my 1.50 goal.



    Videos to follow, including one of some hilarious airborne action down the hill to Mansfield!!

    Technically you did make it flat out. Just went off racing line a little. I'll pull the footage from me behind and hopefully you can hear me laughing hahaha
