My old Jensen Healey ran 107's at 110 (despite the fact that it had vernier cam pulleys), 9.5:1 compression, 40mm Dellortos and a 7 pound Tilton flywheel. Hmmm...  from the master of blanket statements I've been chastised about making blanket statements.   Wow.
I guess "sporting" is a matter of taste or opinion.   I know what a 907 with 9.5:1 and 40 Dellortos feels like...  I built several before moving up to what I consider "sporting".

Since we're obviously talking about different parts of the same elephant,  and since there doesn't seem to be much tolerance for alternate opinions here,  I'll just bow out of this forum.

Keep 'em on the road.   Bye.
