Riley 4 port in Vesco Streamliner

I just saw this on you tube, and I thought it would be interesting for you who have never seen a 4 port for an A.

It is running, and you can here what a good sound it is!

Why am I so interested? John Vesco was my friend and in the SDRC with me!

Amazing what can be done with old technology! Thanks for posting.

 

Thanks for posting that, I'll watch it later. Didn't that 4Port get up over 200MPH?

 

I recall that Vesco's 4-banger turned speeds in the 130s at the drags way back -- really impressive speeds compared with V8 fuelers of the day.
