Hey whitesedan,
I thought it sounded better than my a series - but obviously not
Audio is better in another piece of footage but officials kept walking across screen.
Cheers

I told you it sounded great.
It didn't run too bad for an engine with a head so crook that it couldn't be saved & replacement was the only way to fix it.
I'm just looking forward to seeing it run when it's all dialed in.

Didnt mean to offend
I thought it was the A only because its revving pretty high for a L20!

So have you found a replacement head yet? Thats pretty severe that it cracked on all four runners, am i correct?

Mines got a bit of a coolant/oil leak down the back of the motor, im thinking i should of had the head shaved...
its all fun and games!

Thanks Dodgeman, maybe this weekend - but definately for Huntley on 16/7 - I'll give it another go
WhiteSedan, no offence taken I was told after the event that I was driving it like an A series Gotta stop revving the crack out of it and use the torque!! The head problem was due to a litle too much porting I fear - the casting seams opened up a little under stress !!
Cheers

Great vid sounds like a datto should
