hmm.. i predict a riot.

[Cle]

Sounds nice and looks pretty rapido :)

i seen 160 at one point mate and what the engine spec am going to be building a 1.6 8v on bike carbs

i thought that but he said its a health 140, 160 mite be at the flywheel :confused:

its a c14se with a kent ast1 cam, 1200 dizzy, zx6r bike carbs, 4 branch and i think sportex system

[Danny s-p]

if that is a true 140 out 1.4 that well good but id get it to a diyno dynamics to fined out it true power mate

[peester]

It wont be 140bhp, even at the flywheel.. But it doesnt matter, we wont go into that.. Its how it feels on the road and im sure its a belter.

[Nobby]

140 @ the wheels? seems a tad high to me maybe at the fly which would give you about 120?

[Spudly]

I wouldve thought the 140 will be @ the fly, but you never know cos Boggy is a fooking legend when it comes to carb tuning, he could probably get 100bhp from a block with no pistons in it lol

[mk1nova_rich]

140bhp is a seriously good figure for a 1.4 8 valve thats had no fancy internal work :d

[Danny s-p]

op if you don't mined me asking how much was the manifold and to get it jetted and set up and put on the rolling road

[mark69]

i made the manifold my self, and it was £80 for everything (setting up, jets,rollong road

the guys awsome!

[Danny s-p]

[mark69]

what did you make the manifold out of

i used an inlet gasket and some 12mm plate, drilled the holes out and cut around the flange (would be much easier to get a laser but one) then used some tube from work.

[Adam]

Sounds fooking nice that does! :cool:
But it aint 140bhp. 140bhp at the wheels is 155-160hp at the fly which is 20xe kind of power.

Keith R's old top spec 1400 was "only" 120 iirc. And that was with headwork, decent cam etc iirc.

[Bubba]

who needs power when you have that sound :p

[Southie]

I had that sound and cost me at bogg bros £1,500, how I miss my old SR :(

[shorty249]

can you please upload some pics of your manifold as i will need to build one for my autograss car. many thanks glen.

[jackerts]

to compare i had my 1600 set-up by old man boggy 12 months ago and put out the same figure (140atw) on their rollers.

my spec, e16se, zx7r carbs, ported big valve head, bp300 with vernier,ashley 4 branch and system.

so i'd be chuffed if i was you fella :thumb:

[Dervy]

holy crap that impressive, 140 from a 1.4, nice one

[philip]

cant see 140@wheels, ive seen a 14se with ported head, newman sprint cam which is largest lift can fit before machining spring seats out, twin 40s, 4 branch and +20thou pistons and thats 113bhp @wheels and thats classed as good power. 140bhp+wheels id suspect would need to peak at 8-8.3k or so.

but tbh numbers are pub talk, if it drives well then thats the main thing.

il put some on when i get home mate.

[Gareth_C]

Sounds impressive bet it goes well :thumb:

[tom reid]

Bet you had a good run home:thumb:

how exactly did you see 140bhp at boggys they dont have a computer just the inacurate dial gauge things, i always take there figures with a pinch of salt but they know how to set stuff up always took mine somewere else for a power run after to check results

i saw 240bhp with mine on his rollers once but id never claim it had that, took it to another garage for a run a week later and made 196bhp which i was still very chuffed with considering what it had done to it

[MK1_Ben]

That's bloody awesome power if it's legit. I'd get it Dyno'd again somewhere else though.

Does sound nice though :)

i wouldnt be bothered if it was 110. he said its a good engine and it goes really well. thats all im bothered about.
+ when it was multi point it was doing 14 mpg now its doing alot better.
(yes i did change every sensor known to man and it didnt change a thing).

[peester]

Air filter! had you changed that..?

[mark69]

Air filter! had you changed that..?

no lol it had a big silly green stuff one on it.
it sounded too good to take off :d
it didnt have an airflow meter so how would that make a diffrence ?
(i dont know sh*t about injection stuff, carbs ftw!)

[VnoNovaD]

Forgive me if ive missed it in the thread (ive read through twice but im kinda stupid), but what carbs were you using on the 1.4?
gsxr 600?
