Adrian Offord, our Engine Specialist gives us a brief rundown on the recent porting on this Meadows Engine.
“Engine porting allows a larger flow of air and fuel into the engine, increasing engine horsepower. Firstly, this Meadows Engine has been machined to take Bronze valve guides. The cylinder head has been unleaded and all valve seats have been cut to take larger valves. Then the cylinder head has been ported to increase gas flow. From there, the cylinder head goes onto a flow bench to find the optimum point for maximum efficiency.”
The process of engine porting increases the maximum horsepower an engine can output.
We’ve said goodbye to our 1996 Rover Mini Cooper. Having undergone a full body shell restoration, we’ve painted this car in this sumptuous Almond Green / White diamond colour combination.
On it’s journey with us this vehicle visited Andrew and Darren to remove any corroded metal and complete any necessary welding. Then new Heritage panels were fitted ready for paint preparation. Finally, the Mini was moved into our paint booth with Darren for complete a two tone Almond Green / White Diamond paint.
This vehicle is now with Team C Racing to complete the restoration of this fabulous vehicle.
We’ve been working on so many Jaguar E-Type’s recently here at Bridge Classic Cars. Possibly coming in to us for a front end damage repair and full respray is this fabulous Series 1 E-Type.
This week has already seen three beautiful classics enter our showroom. We’re delighted to offer for sale our 1974 Reliant Scimitar GTE, 1988 Mercedes 420SE Auto and 1997 Mercedes E320 Elegance.
Already causing excitement around the classic car community, our 1973 Reliant Scimitar has been owned previously for four years, in which time it has benefited from a full refurbishment. The car has had a full gel coat respray and the chassis has been under-sealed, a complete new interior, a new clutch and much more. The car comes with a wonderfully presented folder full of invoices for parts and maintenance totalling over £10,000.
