watch the tyres it will give you way more cornering speed and may casue you oil issues
Ahh the old surge problems, I know all about them. My MegaBird (Blackbird engined Westfield) dropped a rod on the 3rd Piston due to this very problem.

Will a raceline sump do the trick or is a dry sump needed (expensive)?? How do the Atom 300s avoid the problems??

Thanks both, good news! Looks like a mild brake work over and the SC then, and a set of R888's just for the odd second or 2 a lap bonus.

Anyone you recomend for fitting the SC, I'm no mechanic!
Now thats a question, I'm not sure there is anyone in this country that will fit one, unless you buy the whole thing off them including ESM ect, i've done mine twice for various reasons

Hmm...accusump, my 'Bird had an accusump and still let go, not a very reliable solution in my experience.

Raceline do a range of baffled sumps for Ford engines, the wet sumps was fine on my 200bhp westfield, and only about
