Well as was the success of the last small engined nova we decided to have another go but this time with a 1lt pushrod beauty and on the rolling road to get some good results.
I wanted to do it right an start at the bottom with the jet sizes but for some reason they went missing an hence the only jets I had was 120, 140, 200. So I used the 120 / 140 first, wasn’t really the right mixture but was the best I could do at the time and it went from 44bhp (standard) to 70bhp with the nitrous with massive torque lol. However this either bent a valve or melted something as it was popping an banging afterwards and only just got to 30mph on the rollers to do a run. But this time I banged in the 200 nitrous jet and well it was interesting. Picked up very quick this time round an sent the airbox and my crossfire injector 20ft up an through the roof.
After this little mistake it fired straight back up but was seriously mullered and would not even make a 1bhp on the rollers lmfao. Shame to see a seriously mint 30k engine go like that but was fun.
The video is stupidly long its all over after about 30s anyway.
Also no matter what we did to it, it would still fire back up an run, proof you cant kill the trusty pushrod.
