I was trying to track you down in the past! Wilkinsj who had this idea and sold the bits to me was sort of copying what you did, well the theory that it works anyway!

Small world!

Altiss quoted a surprisingly small amount to build them yet they turned out to be a silly amount of work. I suspect Nigel might've not charged anough. They were stunning in the flesh.

I gave up on them in the end. Induction isn't the limiting factor with rv8's, its their heads. I sold them and replaced them with a twin tb carbon plenum and other bits.



I used the extra money to buy the Real Steel Merlin heads however, I realised cars were taking up too much time in life so sold the lot.

I'd plump for an lsx motor if I were doing the v8 thing again.

Here's the Reel Steel heads.




They'd be a very worthwhile investement along with a big cam.
