that flywheel is like a rich tea bisquit lol
I can't figure out the inlet myself... looks like a trumpeted intake and air box, but the intake seems to actually connect closer to the head and in totally the wrong place to provide good airflow to the air box?
Why is there no oil feed from the front of the rocker cover?

im sure i could make do with a differant manifould if i had that engine lol
But that manifold will be engineered to be the best possible shape to allow maximum flow and uber bhp, to make do with another you will almost definately lose a notciable amount of pony power!

Very good price aswell.
Hes had it on ebay a few times. People just dont seem to be spending the brass.
How's your engine coming on BIGS?
Me like! Id soon get that fitted into the 12 volt lol
Just collecting a few bits for it really. Its on hold till i get the rollcage in and get the car sprayed. But once that is done i dont know what to do. i was going to get it fully tuned then drive it. but not to sure now. Dont know to put the thottlebodies on the standerd engine to get used to that. then go for the race spec? Im thinking if i go from 113bhp to well 250 - 300 bhp i wont be used to the power.
But if i go from 113 to 190ish then to race spec thats the better way for me. What do you think?

113-300 FTW just take it easy least that way your only getting used to one change and not two!
If I still had an XE, I'd be falling **** over tit to get me that spark plug cover.

Jack, looking at it i think it might be a HT all in one plug in/cover as in it plugs into all the spark plugs and then has a cable coupled into the end of it??
Might be wrong, just looks that way, this would be cool! :thumb:

As triumphant as the reverse head might appear to be, the results on the dyno AND the road were no different to the conventional inlet side setup.
From my perspective WHY bother when either way it's gonna be ram fed from a tapered inlet via the airbox.
Breather would be blanked off as it would be breathing via the dry sump system.
