For my xr2 which is 1700 turbo from a puma with 220ish Buckets Suspension Uprated brakes Exhaust Only thing that is original is prob doors and wheels. No ncb and 23. I got quoted 1100 by graham sykes they specialise in classic and modified car insurance the only thing they were interested in...

Yer dont think you could go more than 180 without lowering the compressison. Would prob melt very quickly.

Well the inlet ports and the exhaust ports are both bigger on the puma head. The inlet quite a bit bigger. And i think the puma engines have a stronger bottom end. There a few running 250 on standard bottom ends. When i have a forged engine to go in. i might be tempted to crank the boost and...

I think their alright little engine weigh very little compared to other engine of similar capacity. Exhaust ports being quite small does limit them a bit but not massively. Have had some flak from people that really dislike them.
