    Sprint Hillclimb 197

    I think ignoring the power issues that a lot of your problem was tyre related. I used them last year and they were useless. They just don’t heat up at all. Has your car has a timing belt recently? A lot of people don’t have the tools or knowledge to set the timing on these engines correctly so...

    Sprint Hillclimb 197

    Aye he’s pretty quick. Won the class at the last 2 events first time out last year. Think I might do Nutts Corner on the 2nd as a shake down/get used to the car so might see you there.

    Alignment and ride height

    Would anyone have any recommended alignment settings and centre of hub to arch measurements for competition use. The car will be used for sprints and hillclimbs.

    Ball Joint replacment

    I think Jordan is looking the ball joint in the wishbone, that's the lower swivel joint on the upright. Could you check with parts tomorrow if the joint that's in the wishbone is available? I could do with one too :(

    Terrible dyno result

    ECC is East Coast Customs, they are off the Ballinderry Road. Very few dynos read accurately, and the data can be manipulated to give false readings.

    Terrible dyno result

    Was this a place in kells? If so I'd take his readings with a pinch of salt. IMO the only semi accurate dyno is at ecc in Lisburn.
