Havent had this engine on a dyno but doing peliminary checks on computer program setup, its pulling around 100hp at 7500rpm.
Still playing around with fuel mixtures, cam timing, ect.

The overall height of the engine is the same as standard mini rocket cover, (not including filler cap).
this engine has longer ram tubes fitted so a flat type airfilter would still fit under the bonnet. I can get measurement from front of block to carbies and height from top of engine block.
The postition of radiator and bottom mounting bracket does not have to be changed only 2 new support bars for top of radiator.
