I am not surprised about the degree of spark advance and locked out timing. Thank heavens for starter savers in the long run.

Just sat and read this all the way thru for the first time.

Hats off to you Adam. Mega motor. Mega build.

Jees, I got lost at the talk of the paint :oops: :lol:

Seriously mate, well done to you and everyone else that lent a helping hand.

Don't you just love it when a plan comes together :thumbright:
Sounded awesome on the video too ( Bob, where did you get the porn music from? One of your old betamax tapes :lol: )

By the way, where DID you get that hood from ? I want one !! (seriously, let me know mate please, already been thinking of getting a scoop for mine, but I suppose this would be easier ;) )

All the best mate, and good luck with your times =D>

Jules. :D

What a nice man , a very nice man. :D

Thanks Jules , that's enough to give the most modest some inspiration.

Hood was a good price , although the paint job cost more than the hood. 8-[

:D :thumbright:

Few probs with the pump shooter cams , the yellow one's supplied are toooooooooo big & flood the motor , the purple one's off the mighty are too small & bog the motor when you stamp on it........... :idea1: got the die grinder out @ shaved the yellow pump shooter cams down. :thumbright:

Finally got ready to give it a blast this afternoon.............

Stuck some fuel in & headed for the North Circ , No Neck buckled up & asked if i had a nappy he could use :D , the torque is unbelievable , if feels like the old 440 with the 300 shot of gas :shock: , sounds real deep & you can hear the gear drive , we got stuck in some traffic which panicked me a bit incase the motor overheated , the temp would'nt go above 170* which is good , No Neck took to the wheel & noticed a ricer up our arse , he tickled the peddle & the motor lifted the front till it broke traction , well pleased with the results , also runs on 97ron , oil pressure is pretty good & shoots up to 70psi when the rpms go up , the dominator is great on the street too , no issues whatsoever , will take it for a longer drive tommorow , can even hear ole Doris Day playin.

The Pit drives real well considering the motor in this , feels tame until you stomp on it , tis a sheep in wolves clothing & a right animal , obviously the track will show what it's got , but feels strong all the same.

Great news Adam, really am pleased for you :thumbright:

170* is excellent, mine still makes me a bit nervous, if too much traffic about.
