Adam is not here at the moment.
However, it has been on the Bris31 a few times as well as an interview with him. He has been the youngest competitor in the State series this year so gets his fair share of PR.
The engine is bascially an A14 block bored to within an inch of it's life and running an A15 crank and rods. We got hold of a GX head and it showed quite poor flow so we started work and spent about 80-100 hours on it. Biggest disadvantage is the compression ratio which is much higher than we wanted, so special leaded fuel is required.
We flowed the head with carbies and exhaust on it prior to bolting it all together and ran 146.6hp.
It ran a theoretical on the dyno of 146.4hp at which reading we ran 119.7hp at the treads. This is a VERY radical 1600cc though so we were not surprised at the result. It has translated into a quick car on the track, but is still MONSTERED by the chook cookers in the category. They run a different capacity class however so I guess it is not a dissapointment
