Quick question. How much pressure have people put on their flywheels etc to remove it? Ive just put about 140ft/lb on it. I know they get stuck on there pretty well but yeh just wondering.

Thanks Blake

I would guess that I have gone to about 200ft/lb in the past. :shock:
The last one I did I heated the hub of the flywheel with the heat gun and it just came off easily (If you call about 75ft/lb easy). :wink:

I have an 1100 that has not been touched in 43 years. It has never been out of the car and the head has not been lifted.
I have been using it as my drive to work and run around car for the past 11 years.

Only mods are a Gemini starter and a Pulsar dizzy.

At the risk of upsetting someone, I would suggest You talk to Graham Russell If you want the best you can get out of a 1098, He is THE MAN

My engine is an 1100 that Graham has bored out to +100 and fitted his flat top pistons. It has a 295 head with larger inlets valves and double springs and the Doc's 1.3 rockers and unleaded inserts. RE13 cam, duplex timing chain, 3 to 1 header, twin HS2s, pulsar electronic dizzy, and 3.44 diff, and 10" wheels .

Graham and others are saying 90+ HP

Looking forward to getting it on the road

But I think 1098cc of uranium would give you the best power - but how to to control it I dont know.


by only allowing one neutron from the fission process to split another nuclei. you absorb the other couple of loose neutrons using an absorbtion rod. if you let all the loose neutrons split other nuclei we'll have another hiroshima on our hands...

but it would depend which isotope of uranium. U-235 will give good results


Theoretical maximum would be 1.21 gigawatts.
