Rod hasnt run a Rover V8 for years and the one he did have was on its last legs when he fitted it. He recently blew up a V6. Actually his last 2 W.E.Rock events he has blown one up.Mad Cruiser wrote:Didn't Rod blow one up recently at a competition ?nottie wrote: I still to this day havent seen anybody kill a rover v8 in a comp!

pretty shore same page Tony 
The exact comment was about the winner of werock and ozrock running a cast iron block chev. So my point was its not all about V8s any more
Hell you just stated that if you ever did build a new one which im shore you wont (but then maybe???) itd be a 4cyl
The rover v8 man goin to a 4 pot the only one i thought rover produced was a shitty diesel 4 pot wasnt it

Because no matter what you do to a 4cyl it still sounds like a girls car/buggy 
Can`t bet the sound of a V8
Ruff, I don`t think so as we only got the 5lt about a week ago. The chev we have had for a while.
While I`m here anybody have a th400 to GQ tcase adaptor? Tazz had one but its now gone
Hay James, go and get driven over by a hummer, please

i thought there was a rule a while ago about forced induction 
but going back over the rules it isnt there so i gather it has been removed
I think that if there is going to be a rule coming in about uni joints being covered then i would assume that if anyone were to run a blower then it would have to be bagged?

Never has been such a rule. Supercharged and turbo'd engines have been used in a lot of the top guys buggies in the past.nottie wrote:i thought there was a rule a while ago about forced induction

And what does a Supercharger have to do with Uni Joints? Its not like your going to run a 2000hp blown alcohol motor in a buggy.
I do agree with ya there Ruff for shore but alot of other motorsports are making them mandatory wether it be a top fuel engine or a 7PSI 4pot yota motor.
All i was thinking was maybe from a insurance point of view it might be asked for I know very little about the insurance side of things obviously so I posed the question.
