Apperently it really has been forever since we were on here then lol.

The pic is of Jacqs T4 engine(v6en on here if anyone remembers), previously tested at 355bhp @ front wheels , 388 bhp @ fly on the same test, since had full tubular manifold and custom exhaust fitted, and another custom map. Cracked a liner and rebuilt engine, was never right, did a second rebuild and was good then cracked another liner. Lot of lessons learned and been put back together with those in mind. Hoping to have it on the road for running in soon.

Best 1/4 mile of 13.8ish @ over 110mph which I was driving for, on an old WW2 airfield surface and raining so the 60ft was something shocking like 2.9 and it wasnt at full throttle until 3rd gear over half way down.

hence the "ooooh" that its almost back in action now we've readjusted our life to being married parents and can fit the time and possible finance into cars again hahaha
