# I once had a Manta A series
I put a lovely shiny engine in it, with twin 45 dcoes and a bone shakin 290 duration cam, my friend borrowed it on the dawn of valentines day and blew it up(accidentally), how i cried, that day has always been a sad one for me ever since. /sob

# aaawww bless
my mates MK1 RS2000 (old stinky) has a pair of 48's hanging off it, 165 brake at the rear wheels

# really?
My Mk2 Shelby Acoustimamator had 3 125s and a 625-B, and a drop down 4 by 7 blow through donkey flange. It had a lot of grunt up top, but not a lot of rear-sponge action.

Nice little mover though. I had a custom 290 flap action stote-valve on it.

*FACT*

# ah
you should have gone for the Facet throbble valve, means theres is less of a load on the scrungle shaft at high revs

# oooh
not with a flap action stote valve, you'll get blow back through the grubnuts.

# wooo, nice bulkhead!
I just had to sell my Mini as the bulkheads were all rusted and wouldn't pass the NCT (the Irish MOT), I miss my mini! :(

# NCT every two years tho
a mini onwers dream that is !

oh well only another 5 years before I move out there

# oh, how often is the MOT?
I hear the NCT is stricter that the MOT though!
(I helped save b3ta! whizzbang, Tue 4 Mar 2003, 18:00, archived)
# every 12 months
from seeing the motors scattered around my future inlaws gaff, I very much doubt if the NCT is more strict than the MOT

At least you have decent driving manners over there :o)

# fair point, I think I just got them on a bad day.
As for road manners I've never driven in the UK but we do manage to kill about 3 time as many people on the roads per head of population as you guys do!
