probably because they cant afford to drive em ;D The belaire (sp) owner said it cost him £375 to go to ipswich and back! If he keepd it under 3000 he can just about get 10mpg, but over that it drops like a stone, lucky to get it over 5mpg ;D

How exactly does this filter flow 850bhp? I'm reconing on the dyno work being done filterless! Its gotta chop at least 100bhp off, i mean those filters are meant from 1.6 paxos Looks like a good day, jolly long way from me though. J EDIT - look at the size of it compared to the crank breather!

Yeah, i know what your saying, although the 'crank breathers' were bloody huge, well, around 4 inch, but still big for breathers. I didnt talk details with the man, he said he built the motor, but didnt seem all that knowledgable. I think he just threw loads of cash at it. He says its 850bhp on the gas, who knows.

P.S. is that a LET viva that I have heard of? Or have I forgotten to take my pills today.
