erm , sorry i should have said its an 91 mk2 8v .... does that make a diffrence ?? i really dont know a thing about engines other than most of them are in the front of cars
IIRC, Rileys Mk1 put out 175bhp with a standard KR on carbs, surely with all your engine mods it should be more ?
rite ok 9a, GVK, i have driven it, you are just jelous, what car did you drive/own when you were 18, cheers for your help chrismcwhat do these 9As go for?! the car is a project of mine for over the next year or so, i will be able to build the engine up in my dads work shop over the summer, tim
then why are you randomly digging at me, why not try and help some one who has an interest in cars much like your self, tim
driven as in round the block or driven as in full chat down some country roads?at 18 you want to learn how to handle what you have now before you start on any eng upgrades imho
i havent driven it properly, im just thinking to the future, what would be the next step, i intend to have driven it properly and got to know what its capable of before i start to change things, tim
F**K - 18? who's insuring it? Mk1's got a point, but it entirely depends on how much driving experience and talent you've got. If you're going to wrap yourself round a tree you've got more than enough power already.
Nobody! So it's a "project" car which happens to be a fully finished mk1 16v putting out 170bhp, which is too expensive to insure? What's the project - putting it back to standard? I don't think people are being jealous, Tim, they're just trying to figure out what you're actually trying to do.
