Thomas
Congratulations on building a very nice engine.
I was talking to the mechanic that looks after 2, 100s that race at Le Mans
and Goodwood. They have full blown race engines with steels cranks etc,
etc. He had just got back from dyno testing and recorded 141 hp at the
wheels which they feel is about the maximum you can extract from the 100
engine
