Originally built by Rob Mules for ARN Junior Challenge
Last dyno’d at 130hp at the wheels on rally tyres
Motor had previously been developed further with an Emerald Phase 5 cam, which made more power but was too peaky and so the Phase 4 was re-instated which gave a better spread of power across the rev range (and better stage times). A lot of development has gone into this motor with no expense spared to get the right balance of power and reliability. Its just awesome to drive.
