Just got a call from my mate. Eaton m45 should be being collected tomorrow.

It's serious now.

so many problems to over come. How am I going to fabricate the rackets, how am I going to interface the air intake.

what to do about fueling.

can I run stock spark.

inercooling

how do I determine the sizes of the pulleys

what have I got myself into.

It's really my father I feel sorry for :)

cooper S.

I would hope about 180. 200 would be nice but I think that's pushing it.
