I sometimes get asked to trial new products to see how they get on in the real world.
As a fan of Wellseal on classic engines, I thought it was worth a try to see how it faired. Turns out it's great and it now gets used on most jobs!
I have no affiliation with Dr Gasket, it's just a great product and ought to be shared about 🏎🏁

A throwback to this absolute monster of a V6 we built to compete in sprints and hillclimbs. Cosworth 24v V6. Ceramic coated forged pistons, rods, valve train, clutch and flywheel were just a few of the custom components manufactured to build this engine up. And then a couple of turbos strapped on for good measure. It's a monster!
