Mk 1 Mark Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 I bought my N/A cosworth running gear of Lloyd,He has a mk1 white and green lotus cortina with 6x 15 minilites. Well he sold me his running gear as he is going Duratec. Anyway he has belled me today to say his engine has been dyno`d It made 297 bhp and 210 LBS ft So his cortina should go really well mated to his 6 speed seq box. Looking forward to having a play with him when were both up and running
Toby Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 That should go like stink!! Who's 6 speed box is he running? I think Elite do one don't they? One other thing (note 3! ) - what rev's did it do that at - and who's rollers, who's engine?
MK2Ed Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 Is good power mate no doubt about that and probably reliable too... Also good torque figure - tell me, does it come as 2.3 or is 2300 gained from boring it...? (I don't know that much about the Mazda plant )
Toby Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 (I don't know that much about the Mazda plant ) I nearly mentioned that! Someone had to I was going to say Mazda rubbish , but the truth is we all know different!

It was mountune who built his engine,And i think it was there dyno but will find out more over the weekend. As for the gearbox i think its a glebe gearbox. Although he was toying with a quaife 6 speed item?
