as far as i know yes, but i really need a service and what not at the mo so am not gettin the full benifit out of it

i know nick hill states that his cylinder head conversions creates up to 22BHP more and keeps its reliablity

There not that much different imo, you just need to keep the valver over 4k and your laughin. The low down torque of the williams makes it ideal for town driving and shopping :wink:

pmsl @ Richy!

a good valver and good williams there's not much difference. mine wasn't that much quicker than my mates semi standard (but with diesel box), but mid 3rd i'd eat him alive... 4th gear starts he'd be all over me... until it came on cam at 110mph again... 5th gear starts were pointless, i'd have to be doing about 140 before it would even think about pulling :cry:
