170* is excellent, mine still makes me a bit nervous, if too much traffic about.
Tis the simple things in life Mark , could'nt be arsed to wait for the smaller cams from Summit , so thought i'd make me own , must of got lucky as the motor responds instantly when you hit the gas pedle.

Nice one Adam, that motor never got hot at all, you couldburn out at 170 and it'd go thru the traps at 180-185 where the 493 would go thru at 200+

Thanks Mark , no probs with temp so far , took it out again today with Naughty Al , slipping on the vertor a bit (3200 stall)), probably due to more torque compared to the other motor (440) , seems to tame it a bit for street driving , gearbox temp is fine so no prob with slippage , just wondering what it will be like on the track , might get a bit of blow through on the sniff , will wait & see.
