The old Reg Cook A15 I had was 109Hp (at engine)
Hoping for more than that. 120 would be nice, or even better 130, which would give me 100 RWHP.

That is looking and sounding "O"for awesome...... I have a feeling it WILL have more HP than before. What does the actual number matter for anyway.Great build and good to have the end in sight.

I just had my best tasting heineken ever, following this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N39t9NV ... e=youtu.be" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Sorry about the poor quality video, and holding phone sideways....
got a bit caught up in the moment
preliminary '90%' tune, but more than happy.
more HP than a 16 valve 4AGE
Reuben thinks he will squeeze a few more HP with final tune
sounds awesome, really good through entire rev range
cant wait to put it through its paces!

Ah I figured that seeing you bid over Grants bid. I just wanted the a15 he had for sale mainly, but it was way over priced at $400. I dont have garage space currently for an entire car so thought I could rebuild a box and motor as a little project.
