Dyno Sheets

i don't have the hardware to scan my dyno results but this little beauty





has got a whopping 60 hp at the wheels and 87lb/ft of torque.which is enough to make mince meat of chavs at the traffic lights ;D ;D ;D

not blistering i admit but i reckon she'll run high 17s down the strip.

I do like the 411 the 412 is a bit too much for me....is it a standard 1679cc lump in there? Aren't those lumps the same as the Porsche 914?Is it the early ones that had the oval lamps?

questions questions.



I miss my old air cooled cars.....

Ah damnit, where did I put that dyno sheet...

My Honda Vision was rolling road tuned from 1.8 hp to 5.5! I kid you not. Took £600 of tuning parts to get to that figure tho.

It came off the dyno, and I rode it twice - it scared the life out of me and has sat in the back garden ever since.

Just to give some idea, I used to be a motorcycle instructor, have ridden some very large bikes in my time, but this thing is scary - the centrifugal clutch doesn't bite until 7500 rpm, then all hell breaks loose!

It needs to go back on the road, or be broken as a donor for a go-cart or something.

Buy it now for just £250!

all of the internals are standard to the best of my knowledge.its the original magnesium block too.shes got 58k on,not bad for a 36 year old motor.
when i got her she had been fitted with 40 idf's and a bosch 009 dizzy.wasnt running right when i got her, the guy told me that the carbs were jetted for a 2 litre.
i fitted a pertronix ignitor 2 lecky ign and coil,cos the points kept closing, and put her on the dyno to get her set up.
this is where i found out the guy i got her off was a nugget.it was 15 degrees out on the ignition timing, the carbs were putting practically no petrol in,and he might as well have left the lecky fuel pump hanging for where hes put it.c*ck smoker.
the suspension is the next thing to sort cos it handles like a drunken fat girl trying to dance.looks like fred elliot has been at it.
its ok in a straight line though so I'm gonna try my hand at a bit of drag racing this year. ;D
only the very early ones had that style of light,the later ones had twin rounds.

Interesting, we had the same problems when we put the Lotus on a road on tuesday.

We couldn't get a good pick up from the HT leads so we calibrated the rollers.
Still couldn't get a reading though as it kept slipping out of the rollers as it's so light, even tied down with rachet straps.
