No video's of it running. Has run with no smoke, but done zero road miles. Power output around the 65hp mark. Reason it was removed is the car it was in has since been scrapped.

The only two I have for the parts and block pocketing by MRA, both back in 2010. I don't have one for the gearbox as I've known guesswork for the last 12 years, and he's only been throwing gearboxes together for the last 20 odd. I'm also in no desperate need to sell, if the engine in my daily decided to go pop, then I have this engine as a drop in replacement.
