edit..tell you what - I'd pay for that style head and button but in black to fit the MG66 though
Hi Gizz - hmm, yes a black top hat like that would be nice on the MG wouldn't it.
From what I have picked up in conversation, the team drivers and head test driver for the GXII project are more than happy with the increased power and economy of this new motor. They made some subtle changes over the last couple of weeks to some of the porting and the crank from the motor that was run in China at the begining of this month. These changes resulted in more bottom end and some added improvements in economy.
It will be very interesting to see how the 5RHO stacks up against the MG66.
I will be running some comparisons once I have one of these new motors with enough fuel through it to be as free reving as my current (original) MG66.
Whatever the results are, I reckon it will be a nice choice to have to make
