- Following a comment on another video, i realised i didnt have any more recent videos of be taking the mini out for a drive.
Sorry about the audio clipping, i was using the built in mic on my DSLR and didn't set the levels correctly.
At the time of recording the car had a 1330 A+ series engine, 8 valve head had been ported with larger valves, Kent 296 Camshaft, Ultralight flywheel, Straight cut Close ratio gearbox with straight cut drop gears.
Weber 40 with long intake manifold, maniflow exhaust, Megajolt ECU
I cant remember exactly but im sure i had the rev limiter set to around 7500 with the shift light coming on a little before then.
Awesome mate! When I get mine out the garage in summer will do a vid like this. Nothing better than the sound of straight cut gears!
Saw the words "straight cut gears" and instantly knew it would be a sound of beauty.
Thanks for sharing !
Thanks! Yeah you can't beat it really. It's like a symphony. I took the car stereo out in the end too. Only downside is really long drives, but I just stick some noise cancelling headphones on to make it more comfortable.
Sounds awesome ❤
Looks quite slow to be honest, was it properly tuned? Or where you not full throttle?
I bet it felt really fast being so low to the ground. I use to race go-karts only doing about 70mph and it seemed nuts.
Love it! Check out ‘Lance Foster Retro Rallycross’ for an 8 port on sc gears driven in anger.
Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out
