sandglobe Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Hi, I was wondering if there was a list floating around anywhere of different engine components that work together because I've seen a number of posts suggesting there's similarities in a number of engines to allow this. I'm currently starting with a 13/60 and looking to make a bit more power without going mad or making it unstable... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Depending on budget etc you can get a reliable 100+bhp. Ideally the GE as opposed to GK prefix engine. But a spitfire head, and the MK3 spitfire cam would be a good start. Along with a suitable distributor. Add twin su's or better, a single 1 3/4" su on a dolly 1300 inlet manifold. (John kipping did that years ago) Add a 4 branch manifold and you should be at about 75bhp and generally livelier. However, my preference would be a spit or dolly 1500 engine with overdrive box. It the torque suits the herald nicely, but it does not rev as freely. depends on how you want to drive it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
