I run a Harry Barlow suzuki 190, 60mm crank. Run BGM 30mm Carb via Breathing Sweet filter, ADS3 road pipe.

Really like the setup, but you need a higher gearing than you have to get the best out of the ADS3. I run 4.4

Spoke to Phil said it was a good all rounder and would work well with one of their new clubmans. said it was capable of between 15-18bhp I presume thats with a new clubman or expansion. Should be good for what I want a torquey cruiser with my carb n clubman setup. Its on series 2 so gonna leave the gearing alone I think. was hoping it was the kind of power a small block muggello puts out or is this not realistic.
thanks for the info everyone.

I would imagine it will be more than realistic.. No bother.

As previous you'd be best directing these questions to MB, he tuned it and will be able to advise best from the info about the tune bearing in mind the assumption that nobody else has fooked with it since.

Anything anybody says on here is opinion or speculation without the barrel, piston and measurements in hand.
