charliemouse - 23/2/11 at 03:13 PM

Im converting my750mc Locost racer to do Magnificent Sevens, and so I have for sale:

FULL 1300 x-flow engine package to 2011 750mc regs.

Carb - with almost new filter and proper linkage
Exhaust - the long primary one that give power lower down rather than 6k+
Head just rebuilt with hardened seats - 1 heat/1race
Bottom end just checked- 1 heat one/1race
New oil pumo - 1 heat/1 race.
Clutch included
Excellent and bang even compressions


Came 7th in heat and 17th in final (ie 17th out of 42) with a novice driver and car 45kg over minimum (mainly down to FAT novice driver!)

Great complete package everything in from of the bellhousing including the clutch.

Just fit and race.

Please feel free to make an offer - sure you all know a Randall bare engine is £1800ish - then you need a manifold, exaust, carb, clutch. This is about £2500 worth new so be reasonable people!

Call Rob at Raw Striker North (Near M1/M62 junction - Wakefield)for more details or to go look.

Out of interest and to potentially help your cause, can you say who built the engine?

45Kgs over? Holy smoke - almost as heavy as my mate 'Fat Max!' LOL LOL LOL

Deals like this always prompt thoughts of returning to Locosts. No Tim, stick to the plan.

On the build - dunno - came with the car which I bought new, never raced. We did the head - so I can guarantee its the best casting we could find (omg are they different!) and deffo got inserts to regs. It looks very nice inside - 3 rods have been lightened et, so not done by muppets. Can be driven down the road on trade plates ATM. Might be on the floor in a week or 2 tho.

We are a similar size, Max and I...Too fond of pies I fear. (well - me anyway)

He is young and brave but I am old yet talented (is my story and Im sticking to it)
