Pick up my 110 V8 on Saturday!

TechnoTurkey:
Can't wait, love my 109" but was after something with a little more power.

This should do the trick nicely:

ringo:
Sweet work dude - a  bargain! Should have some fun with that!

V8MoneyPit:
Wahay!! Welcome to the club  :D There is nothing quite like the sound of a V8 to make you smile. Ringo will vouch for the sound of mine  :lol:

Rich_P:
I wouldn't get your hopes up too much about the performance of the engine.  If it's anything like the early One Ten V8s, then it's max output without any restriction will be approx 110bhp.  The 109-inch weighs less, so actual performance may only differ ever so slightly.

V8MoneyPit:
I believe mine's knocking out in excess of 200bhp now  :twisted: But it still has to haul 2 tons around  :lol:

The original engine had the restricted Stromberg carbs and I reckon might have managed 90bhp on a good day  :roll:

The fact that I can cruise at the legal limit now, and not have to plant my foot on the floor to achieve it, is a total revelation  :lol:

But even at 90bhp it sounded nice  :D
