the different ring gear caused a few people issues years ago when they tried to put old starters in place of the verto type
Med use an 11 gear pre engaged starter on all their vetro setups made by power lite. Difference I’ve saw is that it meshes fine, but on my transfer housing it would appear it was just catching the ring gear by 2mm. So I can see why it killed the ring gear.the different ring gear caused a few people issues years ago when they tried to put old starters in place of the verto type
Car looks great, now to get a video like this which seemed to go viral, 400k views is bound to earn a few quid
Even with EFI it's bound to sound great.
and because it's cool...
I keep coming back to that Arden 8-port video time after time, it's just class. The Arden head was sold as a Pluspack 'S' for Marina's too....
133bhp is fairly good for something that looks tractable from the dyno curve, plenty of area under the torque curve. I take it that it has standard cams in it? It will drive beautifully with that engine, great build!!
I'd drive it first, top end numbers aren't always the best thing to aim for. In fact they rarely are for a road car.
Can confirm that the noise in person is something else compared to the video.

Brilliant mate. What a trip it's been. Definitely in the right hands with Steven and Alan, what these guys don't know isn't worth knowing. Car sitting real nice too and driveable after the geometry setup now time to enjoy it.. Must meet up for a spin and make some extra ITB noise
@cauld1 definitely has the coolest dad award
Looks awesome buddy. How does it feel? Does it feel quick?
Thanks very much mate, yea was a few times it was hard to believe how many people where around. I think it’s safe to say we stood out in the crowd with a few people coming to find us after blipping about in the Saturday night.Hi @jayme seen this yesterday at the Mini Show down in Portrush. Hats off sir! Its incredible all the attention to detail that's gone into this and the quality is second to none. Was gonna have a chat with you but there was loads of folk about it unsurprisingly and you were chatting away. Beautiful motor mate

There was a right bit of chatting but as Conor says was a struggle to stay calm with how disrespectful people where. You should butted in and introduced yourself.
