Not been on for a while (uni) but time has come to break up the old Nova i've put so much time and effort into over the last 5 years.

Its shell is just too rusty to get through its next MOT.

Anyway the engine is a solid one (around 3000 miles) and those of you that were around in 2005 might remember the post where i showed the build stages (i'll try dig it out).
edit. This is as far back as it would let me go http://www.pngclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=51966

Some reminder pics i've still got:

It's been tuned on a rolling road and develops 130Bhp @ 6000rpm, not sure of torque but it has oodles at low revs. (Have roller's report to prove).

Its had an omex rev limiter set at 6200rpm its whole life and has never been ragged silly.

is the kent cam still available?

Nick
12-08-07, 11:47 AM
I didn't really want to resort to this .... but

I bought the cam, it was described as having no visible wear. But one of the followers had failed and the subsequent lobe on the camshaft had some bad scoring and wear on it.

I've tried emailing the chap, no reply. Totally untrustworthy

chrisdovey
16-08-07, 02:52 PM
interested in the kent cam, will you take ?70 for it
