Anyone used a GSXR1100WP in a Locost

As in the title, just wondered if anyone had used the Suzuki GSXR1100 WP in a 7 type car, if so are there any pitfalls ie sump mods etc that need doing ??

Sounds like a cracking idea to me if you've got one. Good cheap 140bhp with loads of torque and a big bore kit is a cheap upgrade too.

I've actually got 2 a standard and a big bore, with a lovely set of flatslides to suit...no problems there just wondering about oil surge issues with turning them round...would hate to waste one finding out!!!

Only major headache is the hydraulic clutch take a look at my pics for a possible solution!

If fitted a suzuki RF900RR
Bottom is just about identical to the GSXR1100W's
Clutch was a bit of a pain.
now soerted.
Still looking out for a bargain 1100W.
Or turbo/Super charge in the future.
Low PSI turbo should take 1100w to BUSU power.
