Re: Building to return to Hillclimbing

All finished and ragging it around now
A pair of rears lasted 2 tanks of fuel (12 gallon tank)
No speedo so I don't know the mileage, around 120miles I would guess

you could, but atmo engines and hot cams dont like plenums, so you would have to keep the cams mild,
i would of thought that a normal dcoe manifold and throttle bodies would be better and cheaper

Gorgeous car mate
Can you enlighten me as to why you decided to get your cage from Italy as I would have thought it would be quicker and cheaper to get it from one of the many cage makers in the UK

Re: Building to return to Hillclimbing

I wanted Sparco Cage as I have had a bad experience with Safety Devices. £600 for a multi point quality cage or £900+ for a locally built. They come from Italy to Silvertstone.
Plenum allows better airflow with no elbows or corners to slow the airspeed down, not much good for an Atmo motor. I ran my Atmo YB on DCOE SP50's.

Re: Building to return to Hillclimbing

i've seen those manifolds on ebay, they look very nice, not sure they give any more power though as they look like a straight copy in stainless of a std 2wd manifold
