Just found the prints and its 124bhp at the crank. Were looking for around 150bhp after the final tune at the crank. Maybe that close to the wheels if were lucky and hit it spot on.

Just needs a good tune up. Last time it was tuned the guy showed me how it was dropping power at 4-4.5rpm due to the cam timing being wrong. That was last year and now all the stretch should have gone from the new chain so it needs adjusting and setting up again.

Gadjit made 383bhp on the rollers last time, and I believe he is more than happy to use every last one of them. Good chance it will get fastest of the day too.

In fact, that's where my money lies at the moment for overall winner.
