Hello Michael,

saw those pictures on FB and it looks great!
and i saw also the pictures from engine work,
i do nearly the same with my 131 engine!
what can you say about the horse power?

Enzo

Hi Enzo, thanks for your kind words.

Yes I have seen a pic of your 131 - it looks awesome. Have you got any videos of the car on Youtube? It would be great to see some.

Guy Croft has done all the work to the engine, he has said on his forum that it will produce 187bhp. Is your 131 in a similar state of tune to this? Here are some pics of the engine during build:







Thanks, Michael

He guys,

Some pics below of the ally fuel tanks loosely fitted during summer 2013. The left-hand tank holds 45 litres (9.9 gallons) whilst the right-hand holds 39 litres (8.7 gallons), totaling 84 liters (18.7 gallons). At 25mpg (here's wishing), the car's distance would be 467miles. Fuel pump can also be seen loosely fitted.


And then again over Christmas 2013. Accusump can be seen on the right with external oil filter mount. Battery tray can just been seen to the left of the left-hand fuel tank. Also pic of the Mocal laminova loosely fitted.


Ally radiator is made by Pro Alloy.

So that's a power to weight ratio that exceeds a lot of V6s?

Could well be. I'm not sure of all the weights of a Beta TC engine and chassis versus a V6 engine and chassis. Perhaps someone else on here would know? Would be interesting to find out.

I would also be very curious the comparison. Looking at engine options I am curious how a Busso, QV and the little Fiat match up.

Hi guys,

The car is going in for its IVA test on 3rd June. Also finally got my Dad to join the SEC.

Here are the latest pics.
