Hi guys
Im enjoying my search for a new Healey. Its centred on finding a suitable 100/6 or 3000 with hard top and other rally related mods.
I've been distracted however by an interesting 1954 BN1 which has been subject to a body off restoration and now sports virtually an entire alloy body. Im not sure about the doors. It has 100S seats, louvred bonnet etc. but most intriguing is its carburation.
It has been fitted with a Denis Welch alloy head and high compression pistons but for some reason it is rumming a single 45 DCOE Weber on a modified manifold.
I wonder if some of the engine experts out there can give me an idea of what that is likely to mean in terms, of performance, drivability and fuel consumption, etc.
thanks
