Hey Dave!!!
Good to have you back on here. When you didnt turn up, I said to a couple of the lads that your V8 was probably still in a container somewhere
I kept up with your internet diary. That was some adventure mate!
Dont forget those dyno figures were with the engine running off peak due to the timing issue??
I'm taking a Costello V8 MGB to Martin this week for a rolling road run to get some info before I hoik the engine out and drop in one that I am just building.
I'll also get mine back on soon, as I did some testing at the track yesterday and discovered that I had made a big cock up on my timing too. On the Dyno day, mine was running at only 4 degrees BTDC off gas, and at 1 degree BTDC on gas.
Not sure how much difference it will make to the output, but running 6 degrees retarded would have reduced cylinder pressure somewhat.
See you soon Dave.
Perry
