My UK 63 Old Skool Looker
timc - December 29th, 2004 at 08:49 PM

Here is my UK '63 Old Skool looker. Some details about the car:

Pearl White paint, with BRM reps front and back.
Narrowed and lowered front beam.
Front disc brakes.
CARTER USA box.

The car is currently running a little 1641cc lump with twin Dell 36's, but will be having it's new "heart" put in, in 2 weeks time.

The new engine is a 2165cc, Scat crank, Scat H beam connecting rods and a Scat chromoly flywheel with a Daiken clutch disc and stage 1 Kennedy clutch cover .

Scat straight cut timing gears and a Web-Cam 86C camshaft .

It has a Scat 2 Qt deep sump , Berg 30mm oil pump with relief cover .

It has CB Street Eliminator heads with 40 x 35.5mm valves , that are ported & poished .

It will also run a 2.5" Magnaflow box .

This engine should push out over 165bhp and run a 0-60mph in around 5 seconds and push me down the quarter in 13's.

Should be fun!

Thanks to shmikuk for the pics :)

Thanks Anthiron, it hasn't been it VolksWorld, but looks similat to Steve's 66 Looker that was in there a few months back. Same engines though :)

E, will be more hardcore once the 2.2 is in. I'll be straight over when it's in mate ;)
