Hi DJ.... You should have started a new thread for this cos it sounds like an interesting build. With all the mods you are making I would imagine you should get something approaching your expectations but is always hard to know for sure. You should be 0k with the fuel pump as I believe the H120 ran a standard one too.

As for me I have settled on the following spec'

H120 block with flat tops
H120 cylinder head
E128 camshaft (lucky find)!
Modified H120 inlet manifold with plenum added.
Modified exhaust manifold (ex Commer van).
Garrett T25 turbo ex Rover 220
Tubular push rods
Modified H120 dizzy (no vacuum)

Have got most all the parts, just need some time to build it all up. Have already promised to post some pics of the engine as its put together which I'm hoping to do soon providing I don't change me mind between now and starting, which I've already done several times.

On the subject of pics.... where are they? All the guys will be along soon asking you to post cos it's a rule of the forum that all newbies have to show us what they got!

Building the 'Mark II' fastback Rapier ('Arrocuda').
