The throttle bodies are worn so with that and the cams it idles high and doen't like putting around town. It has headers so no thermostat control. It is set permanently lean but in a few months our mechanic is going to install a system to actuate the cold start squirters with a button. That way the warm starts will go smoother. As it is now cold starts require two or three starts before it continues running. And warm starts take a lot of cranking since the cold start squirters do not work due to the heat soak.
But as long as you keep the revs up it is a hoot!
I can't imagine what a higher compression RSR motor would be like.

Them RSR engines are awesome!
Said it before, the GT3 I drove was a nice engine at high RPM.
But a a bit yawny for me.
