Yeah she's sweet, bit of a shock when the dyno read-out came back that I'm only getting 129 bhp not the 150 I wuz told it should have when I bought her, but, the plus point is it looks as if the head gasket's alright. Stiil I need to find the other 21 ponies and they do a 1300 big bore kit and nitrous.

Stiil I need to find the other 21 ponies and they do a 1300 big bore kit and nitrous. :hmm: Thot that sounded like a whole lot of horsepower when you first mentioned it. That's why I asked about the mods done, because to get 150hp out of a REX generally takes somewhat more than the typical mods (pipe, jets, pods, etc.) - well into the realm of cams, pistons and head mods/carbs, etc.) Glad you've got it running right finally!

Yep bit miffed about the power but glad she's back. All I need to do now is wait for that strange yellow ball thingy in the sky to come out and I can at last ride the beast from bodmin. To doddery to ride in the wet these days and cant bend down far enough to fit the stablisers any more.
