Stu Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 (edited) Gary? Mike? Are we supposed to know these people?Typical Stu. What? It's a bit odd using first names when your audience doesn't know them. If you had provided a bit of background information to set the scene.. Edited June 10, 2012 by Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit odd using first names when your audience doesn't know them. If you had provided a bit of background information to set the scene..Typical Stu because, you'll never say anything other than 'negative' comments or things you can pick at, i've never seen you say (in any thread) "That looks good" or "Well done." To be honest, if you wont say anything constructive (whether it be criticism or applause) i'd rather you say nothing, i've lost all time for you. P.S i've already said Gary is the owner. Mike is our business partner (Mike Webb Racing) Edited June 10, 2012 by Ahmotorsport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 You'll get over it. I like Arrow rods, there you go. Oh and I like the new workshop. I'm in the middle of fitting out a new workshop too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solid bronze or steel-backed? Yes a workshop for myself. Well, hybrid office/workshop. Just a small outfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Bit surprised they're solid bronze! I hope the clearances on that small end are perfect. My workshop/office is for my business. It's nothing to do with engines and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nothing to do with engines and stuff.We wouldn't fit it if it wasn't right Oh i see, i assume workshop = engines, silly me. Bit surprised they're solid bronze! I hope the clearances on that small end are perfect.But why do they need to be steel backed if they're in a steel rod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minirotty Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 lol I've learnt that Stu's replies will always be a little odd ball, but then I also learnt not to misinterpret your replies bud, at first you got on my wick pmsl Engines looking spanking! Can't wait to see the power figures from this 1.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see the power figures from this 1.6.Fair point Sir! Thanks pal, the owner loves it so that's good. You and me both, we're itching for that 200BHP! Even if it doesn't quite see 200BHP, there is still loads more we can do to achieve that. Lets hope she performs as well as she looks. (If she holds together there's no hope about it!) xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I used to have a set of the custom Jenvey ITB's for these.. the 38mm sleeves ones.. The proper works ones for the ~200bhp rally engines were a piece of art - McLaren made the carbon trumpet stacks for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm certain it will be near enough if not on it, but what do i know. I'm the apprentice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Well I guess you'll never know unless you stick it on an engine dyno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually use Gerald Dale's and his is surprisingly very accurate, we dyno'd a standard ST170 at 171BHP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
