7Westfield Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 I picked up a trailer full of formula ford parts the other day, and this xflow was in the mix No numbers at the back, where you find 711M, etc But, at the front end.... Is this what it looks like? Seems overkill for a 115hp FF engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7Westfield Posted August 25 Author Share Posted August 25 thanks MV any idea what the difference would be, vs a 711? obviously not much, or it couldn't be a FF block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MV8 Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 I expect it has higher nickel content (stronger and heavier) plus it can be bored larger than a 711 safely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7Westfield Posted August 25 Author Share Posted August 25 better than that, according to some paper with it, it's a fresh Arnie Lyoning FF build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7Westfield Posted August 26 Author Share Posted August 26 no plans at present what I got was a complete Lola T202, in boxes, virtually all new parts problem is, the frame is crap, between the damage and sketchy repair attempts I need to find drawings and specs before I can do anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theDreamer Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Hoooolleee crap! They only built 17 T202’s. You should (if not already) join the Lola Heritage forum. http://www.lolaheritage.co.uk/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MV8 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Oh no, I'm far too tight for such things. I believe you are thinking of Bruce K. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7Westfield Posted September 28 Author Share Posted September 28 turns out it's probably not an Arnie motor after all wrong paint job so, I'll get it dynoed and see what it does then for sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
