eh? has he got a flamer as well?

cheers.

how much and are the ends crimped?

out of curiosity who's braided line kit did you get? oh and throw a set of cams in and get the pms exhaust manifold :tonguewink:

what problems did you have?

i'd stop looking at power figures if you're sticking a v8 in a light weight car for a start. years ago we did a rover v8 on carbs in a triumph dolomite and it seriously went like stink. 2.3 v6 cologne engine in a mk2 escort, again went like stink and did a 2.8v6 cologne engine in an SS1...

check for water ingress in the loom, they suffer from it hell of a lot, usually takes the ecu out though.

don't know, not looked into it that much to be honest, think that's how mark has done it though?

don't cooper do an equivalent?

depends on the ramp angle, personally i'm not a fan of them, it's a long story that ended up costing a hell of a lot of money, but mark has said the issues of materials has been resolved.

need something that will give you a graph so that rules out most cheapy ones. think bosch recommend replacing at 90,000 miles?

do it a few times and it becomes easier, load more times and it becomes even quicker to do.

spot on, you are now officially a specialist :wink:

need to scope/graph it to see if it's switching as it should and fully. what mileage has it done?

i've seen more faulty pre cat lambdas NOT throw a code than those that do, you need to look at how it's switching to check it properly.

fwir 197 pistons are higher comp than 172/182, 197 head has slightly bigger chamber so if you run the pistons with a stock 172/182 had you'll be up on compression anyway. not sure on clearance though so you'd have to check into that though. i'm planning on chucking a set of 197 pistons in my...

you're putting 197 pistons in a 172 block?

touch over 14psi, can't remember exact rating on the cap.

you need to lift the cams out.

can't do it with belt on. got to do it with pulleys off or the cam cover won't come off.

as long as you don't have to heave the horseshoe to get it in will be fine.

he doesn't answer the phone, it goes back to an incident when he was a child, drop him an email.

no fighting on the forum :tonguewink:

loads it could be, with you saying boing though i'd go for top mount bearings being shagged.
