    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.

    Looking good Michael, great to see it being finished off and getting on the road.
    One thing to think about for IVA is that the front indicators are also visible from the side for the test. Maybe mounted on a block to bring them forward? Also hazards need to be visible when the front and rear clams are open, so short retaining straps or different mounting point for the test may also help.
    if you still have the 'Nose' on the alloy X1/9 clam clips you may find these may need rounding off or nose removing so that they meet the radius requirements as they are contactable.
    hope that helps
    Rob
