I've got to say that both myself and Gem have seen the car (and heard about the fuel economy :? ) and have got to say Adam has done a superb job.

Well done mate

How much engine weights? I guess lot less than B200 but is it much heavier than B14?

Loads lighter than a redblock, weight is rougly same as a 440 injection engine, a little more than a 1.7

Fantastic! In a light car like a 340 it must be pretty damn quick,

JTBO- Should weigh a similar amount to the 340 1.7 engine.
