Hey Bevin,
Listen, this is what my car is doing stock right now. Even if you had just 200 HP -- ran the stock H22A engine --
you will SMOKE ME!! And I LOVE my car, it has enough power to get me in a LOT of trouble! It is a LOT of fun to drive in the mountains right now. Yes there is a lot more potential for my engine once I start modifying it, but honestly speaking, I have enough fun in the hills to keep my mind off of the measly 145 HP.
I can't imagine how fast your car will be with 55 more HP and 400 pounds less weight. WOW

1st pic is the specs of my car right now as it sits outside my room
2nd pic is how my car performs on paper
3rd pic is the MGB with a 100% stock H22A with 5spd + mid-engine
4th pic is how this MGB performs on paper
And lastly, the 5th pic is a drag race between my car (Green), the MGB with a stock H22A 200 HP engine (Teal), and the MGB with the built G23 (249 HP). I super-imposed the resulting 1/4 mile results for comparison. The numbers to the left are occurring at the exact moment the G23-powered MGB hits 1/4 mile.
Check out the G-force (acceleration) comparison! wowAsk Chee if he thinks a 13 second street car with street tires is fast or not
