Thanks for that Philwell that sounds very interesting...........
Chris, you can have mine anytime as a test bed
I will in the next few weeks be fitting it to Silver Lady to see how it performs on the road, on an already heavily modified engine.
Sounds good, Chris. we missed you on the Bowland run!Latest news on the head is we have had it mounted with big valves and fitted it to a k series race engine with a hefty supercharger, good news is the head was still strutting its stuff at near 300 bhp without breathing restrictions. So as the saying goes jobs a good un. Three test heads have been cast and are being polished and built up while I write this so I think it likely that Silver Lady should be done in a couple of weeks. Will PM those who have offered to test probably by early August.
Chris
Yes it was a shame,but sadly no way I was going to make it.Sounds good, Chris. we missed you on the Bowland run!
Well the first production head arrived last Thursday and it is planned that it will be fitted to Silver Lady next week. Adam came over to have a look and kept muttering stuff about wanting one as a piece of modern art. Iam fairly sure that he was wanting to have its children but thats Adam for you lol!
Anyway to be more serious for a moment, there will be a progress report and photos to follow soon

Well the head is finally fitted and bedded in on the Silver Lady and the results are quite frankly awesome. Rolling road figures will follow soon, just cant stop driving for long enough to get round to it.
Chris
sounds good!!!!!
c'mon Chris lets have some figures........... then again maybe not as everyone will want one lol[/QUOTE
Can give you figures for a standard 1.8 mpi, with the new head a set of 135 cams, and 52mm throttle body, running standard mems -163bhp.
We will be taking orders soon
