Glenn will get it back together in no time. I think he was more pleased that his new gearbox setup and clutch worked well.
Thats mint, 11.4 seconds with a dropped valve!
Rotten luck - shows its going to be possible to do on that setup tho!
its quite common place in the honda world to drop a valve, they say heavy springs stretch the valves, and if you get them hot enough they fail. may be worth pulling a few valves out and measuring see if they any longer...
good job anyway guys, 103mph 1/8th is spot on for a high 10
For comparison my 144mph runs had 110mph at the 1/8th, so the C1J isn't a million miles off.
Rob, good advice
i thought when they made valves, they welded the tulip onto the stalk. with the stronger springs they have more stress on them - more likely to break?
you make c1j so good i have big respect for you man
Hard luck Chap - soooooooo close.
In the words of the Fast and the Furious
"Monica......................................Noooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"
Maybe at the Frog??
Now that would be something, got me fingers crossed for you.
Stotty.
Correct, they are fused together, there is also different materials of stems out there.
they carn't take the power so no goodAhh i seeee...Why not use a sequential gearbox?? I know there like 3K
Nope, the valve manufacturing plant I've been into forged the complete valve from 1 piece of material!
top advice son going to use bigger valves nowits quite common place in the honda world to drop a valve, they say heavy springs stretch the valves, and if you get them hot enough they fail. may be worth pulling a few valves out and measuring see if they any longer...

hats off to both of you guys
what a run, makes me wanna stick with the c1j
better luck next time Glen, I can almost smell a 10sec pass there
smell a 10 no problem son car is nearlly done warning to people using metro turbo valves in there head dont there ****
Did you use standard metro turbo valves or some aftermarket ones? The standards are two piece and have been known to break!
I know the mini will never hit a 10 but interesting to know. Awesome times as well good to see your car get faster every year.
Ron

If you are running one now Glen I'd love t know how well it works off NOZ.
The turbo specification remains the same, but bits of dead valve had smashed some blades off the turbine wheel so it needed changing. 6262, yeah right
good good

Thats 4th gear on a private test track
I just bought a set of ID850's and think they came in at just over £310can you get price on some of these injectors son
Did you use that gearbox that I gave Specky for you? What was it like inside when you opened it up?
yeah thats about the going rate, and ideally you need to match them up with the bosch 044 pump which can sustain a high pressure supply, (with a suitable high pressure regulator).
not opened it yet will do at some point thanks anywayI just bought a set of ID850's and think they came in at just over £310
