Perhaps we should start threads titled "Not having problem with my BEC" then?

Have you got a large can of worms to go with that can opener??!!!

the reson i went bec is because of probs with the cec and the bec smile is real lol

and u will have more problems with a red top on 45s than eanything else unless you have a couple of k in a full rebuild and then thats gone away from the locost

I can only see one problem with BEC's.
10 seconds to a BAN !




If bike engines are so bad....

Why did a Van driver try to get my bike engine into the back of his van, whilst I was still on it.
And it's only 399cc's

Yes it's the first time I've been reversed into on a bike.

Aye Tom, your right, bike engines in cars are fragile, clunky, just like girls on PMT and a bugger to get into a parking space (or out again!)

And.. this is my attempt to get a bike engine into a car in under 1 second

'BIKE ENGINES BELONG IN BIKES'
Yup someone with commonsense at last. Spose it really depends on what u want, how much money you've got and above all how old you are.

Oh Oh, here where go again....

BEC = Boat Engined Cars, go Pinto go!

What an absolutely stupid original post!!! So much depends on the ability of the builder to actually put the car together right in the first place when you are looking at breakdowns. CEC's break down just as often as BEC's i recon - and i'd bet more often than not its down to mistakes that the builder has made!!! How many genuine total failures are there, and how many are down to build errors?? Lets make an assumption that more BEC's are used on track than CEC's and so are used a damned sight harder - is it any surprise that weaknesses are found??

About time this sort of deliberately confrontational thread was banned IMHO!! BEC or CEC being best - depends on the use which some people cant get into their head!!! If its as a bit of fun, to go to Le Mans every year or tour Scotland, and maximum performance isnt top priority then anything but a CEC is silly. Ultimate performance - then a BEC is generally going to win and will probably be driven harder - so is it any surprise if they break more often through genuine mechanical failure???

And breathe.................... I reckon he only posted cos he was after a reaction like yours Paul. Personally, I love the CEC v BEC debates we have on here, provided they're well founded and are factual. Otherwise, just treat the post in the same light-hearted manner it was posted.........
