I know that the MK2 front end is longer than a MK1, but is the actual engine bay larger?

Re: MK2 engine bay
Good, I feel a plan forming!
Does Dave still have that white wreck in his front garden and would he mind if I had the engine bay?
Hopefully, I'll see you next week, unless you're going to Duxford?

Re: MK2 engine bay
You want the engine bay Andy? That's a strange request, what the hell are you thinking about doing and how is the megasquirt going?

Re: MK2 engine bay
The megasquirt is working well, just did a holiday in France, got good MPG too. Only one problem, which was easily fixed and caused by poor workmanship on the part of the installer!CRAJ wrote:You want the engine bay Andy?

Engine feels strong and feels like it has more performance then it's ever had, along with very good mpg.
But I am disappointed with the actual power output of engine, 80 bhp isn't enough though, which is why I'm thinking about a cut out engine bay.......!

Re: MK2 engine bay
Your not gonna "blow it" are you?
Just remember you want an S (8.5:1) or a USA spec (7.5:1) head to prevent it blowing up!
