    York timing.. the official answer !

    heres a reply I got from York re the 13 sec run. Bloody good of them to reply so fast too!.. nice one.. From that it seems like litter or alteration of light level is the most possible cause. At least we now know the reasons for the glitches.. nothing to do with computers failing etc...

    Design Ideas, Nick Read maybe

    induction kit style cone filter with the super bonus of a rammed airbox system with a very short inlet tract instead of the crappy way that IKs suck in hot air. When you lift the bonnet you would unseal the box and when you close it the box will seal again. Very easy to maintain and should...

    FAO Captain Turbo Update

    hi m8, gone kinda slow at the mo.. awaiting manufacture of forged pistons and the machining is halted due to the need to bore the block to suit the pistons (cant do this till they arrive). (83mm) So, I bought a NOS kit to play with in the mean time lol. Joe.
