Mike Tarry got his Continental 100E sorted quite well, you will need to call him though as he does not do computers. I think it was all the usual stuff, bigger valves, slightly hotter cam & of course the big difference is the exhaust.
Does anyone know who can do a good 4 branch wet (that's the stumbling block) exhaust these days? I need one for a 1500 pre X flow Delta & also one for a Twin Cam Delta.

Hi G
I have spoken to Mike very helpful and knowledgeable. Although no bits spare so still looking for the gem on a shelf somewhere. Seen aquaplane web pages at small ford spares and have ordered the bill cooper book !! So that's a start
Cheers d

Alacrity,
You could not do better than this chap for any kind of fabrication whatsoever. His pipework is staggering.

No connection but for the respect of one craftsman for another.
