Why a phase 1? Phase 2 have more power. Like mine ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Btw. I have just bought a second inlet manifold (for building an injection system) and all the edis curse word (for mapable spark) so it looks as if my Lotus is gonna be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century. Some other news on the 'beam front. As I had posted before my engine was really smoky and on teardown it appears that the first cylinder was running really lean and burnt itself. Now the good bits:- The car has a fully baffled sump. It also has a balanced crank, conrods and pistons. And the heads are works spec. (THANK YOU GOD) So as soon as all my bits arrive from QED I will be rolling roading it in Cookstown and hoping for 220-230bhp. Now where did I leave those 10x13's

Just checked out your website. Nice car whats the spec? I thought it was a rally car at first (its my wallpaper). Btw, is that you in the car in the third pic? Congratulations, not many 16year olds have a car like that. I didnt get mine until I was 30.

The third picture is my dad, I was taking the picture. At the time I was only 14, so I cannot drive it yet, so I get my dad to.
If you cant tell, its outside the Peugeot plant, Coventry. It was at the 2nd Rootes meeting.
