Pick up my 110 V8 on Saturday!
Muddy:
--- Quote from: "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.

just take the restriction plates out then :D
Rich_P:
Muddy, that is without the restriction plates fitted! They were down tuned and low compression to run on poor quality petrol as well as have a different cam profile to the standard Rover V8.
Muddy:
ah well :oops:
in that case maybe fit a 3,9 cam and a nice big carb???
Rich_P:
Yes, and different heads and also I believe different pistons. That way you increase the compression ratio considerably.
Muddy:
do it properly and drop a john eales in then 8) :lol:
