southwind25 Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 are you selling the jets seperatly? it might be nice to have a few to try and see if i can get these webers running a little more efficiently.
Ian7 Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Hi Who built the motor, and when? Which block does it use? Is the complete dry sump system included? Does it use an unmodified Ford flywheel? (ie is my stock clutch going to work?) thx
new2 7s Posted March 25, 2008 Author Posted March 25, 2008 With regards to the Jets, yes I can sell them seperately.... let me know if you'd like a list of jets available.... unless you already know what you're looking for? The original builder of the motor was former Caterham dealer in Southern California.... I've since had the piston rods balanced by a local shop and the carbs and timing tuned by Morgan West in Santa Monica, California. The original date built was October 2006, the first time used was August 2007. The dry sump system, including all steel braided hoses with Earls aluminum connectors and 2 gallon tank is included. If interested I'll include the flywheel and clutch assembly with the motor. The Lucas starter has been rebuilt and the bendix drive has been matched to the flywheel.
new2 7s Posted March 26, 2008 Author Posted March 26, 2008 Yeah, he built it to proper tolerances. I decided to go the extra step and have some balance work completed. It's been a great motor, very reliable.
Kitcat Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 What is 145 hp based on? For instance, when dynoed, my 135 hp crossflow made 93 hp.

Yes thanks a list of what you have would be great. We think she's running a bit rich right now and want to play around with the jets when warm weather is here, and it would probably be good to have a few to screw up on those odd altitude days. esp looking for 120 mains, and 45 f9 idle jets, but others might be welcome. right now we have 180 main airs, 125 mains and 50 idle's which are within spec for a 1600 x-flow anyways...but..cant hurt to play around.
wallisek Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 For those of you looking for Weber carb parts, check out http://www.carburetion.com/Weber/weber.htm. I've ordered from them before, quick shipping and good service. Cheapest prices I've seen so far for Weber carbs too. They have jets, tubes, venturis, etc...just FYI
new2 7s Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 What is 145 hp based on? For instance, when dynoed, my 135 hp crossflow made 93 hp. The HP rating is based on the build specs from RMSCI, John WIlcox Competitive Engines and other engine builders from the UK.... though I may have misstated the octane requirements.
