Hi

I was planing on converting my 748sps engine to a 853,in the end i went with a 955 engine.I collected everything apart from the 853 kit,i sold the engine to Baines Racing at Silverstone,as far as i know they still have it,might get your cams there.I still have a set of heads with bigger valves overhauled with new valaves and shimmed ready to go,i also have a set of light weight adjustable cam pulleys.
During my research into converting the 748 i was advised to fit a oil cooler as the 853 engine can run a little hot,i might have a oil cooler to.

Cheers
Colin Ridgway

My advice is speak to Chris at CJS racing. He built my 853R about 4 years ago and its still going like a goodun. It made 133bhp at the wheel. He knows his stuff when it comes to putting desmos together properly!!
