      If the rocker nuts were only finger tight, there is obviously a reason for not doing the final bits on it. Love how the keyboard warriors always know best 😂

    Looking forward to seeing it on track. My 1965 VW Beetle is built for Historic Touring Car racing, and the motor is currently 1285cc with 126bhp@7700rpm and 97lbft, so pretty similar to your Libre motor, although you have much more lower end torque than me. Currently gathering parts for a 1299cc which'll be in the 135-140bhp@8500rpm range.

    Those are some very nice numbers for a little motor like that. 120bhp is 96kW out of a 1.3l engine designed in the late 1940's, very nice. That car is going to be pretty quick.

    Sorry to Say Matt, but I did offer to help you with hints and tips, albeit a lovely engine from John at SC again as normal, but without another 20bhp, spot on weight and a ATB diff I’m afraid your experience of Libre will be one of watching a lot of cars from the rear buddy. Your work is amazing and due to budget restraint on engine it’s going to be waisted I’m sorry to say. If your testing and need a time to work to check out mini7 times on TSL before you go so that you can see where you sit. I’ll estimate a 57sec tops at the brands Indy circuit once you get your teeth into it. Good luck fella.

    That's an odd setup for the intake/exhaust being on the same side of the head, all the years my uncle owned and messed about with Mini's i never noticed. Learn something new every day

    • @ferrumignis
      @ferrumignis Год назад

      There are quite a few non-crossflow engine designs from the A series eram (e.g. the Ford "pre-crossflow" used in the Anglia, Cortina etc). The A series siamesed ports were more of an unusual feature.

    • @danstewart8218
      @danstewart8218 Год назад +2

      The Siamesed ports are one of the restricting aspects of the A series, the works cars of the 60's tried using a crossflow head (look for Arden) ie. carbs at the front exhausts at the back and they were easily pushing 110-120hp out of them, and they were not nearly as modern as this...ie belt drive and ecu...instead of timing chain points etc...
