as the 1500 blew up i'm making it heavier with a 2L I6 follow more up to date progression on the build on my insta @mr_tom_bird all music used is by no copyright sounds.
Did something simular in the eighties, a 1600 straight in a spit MK3 biggest problem indeed, other carburators to fit under the bonnet, and getting them adjusted, hope your cooling will work, you gone need all you can get out of it, enjoy the suprised look of many other drivers for she will go like stink 😅
It seems like my comment might be a year late but this vid only just appeared in my feed. Did you replace the spitfire diff with a gt6 diff? If not the final drive gearing will be all wrong. My brother did this very same swap with his spitty 30 years ago but neglected to change the diff. As a result he had plenty of low end grunt but it topped out at about 50 mph with the engine practically on the red line.
Hi mate sorry for the late response it’s been a while since I logged in yes there will be a update video soon it’s just a case of getting a few clips of it off of my drive!
