are you able to use both hands, and your eyes to do that job?


And one ear lobe!

If you can get away with only using both hands and a few teeth you're doing well.

I thought I'd throw in my dyno measurements, though they aren't Cooper s.

my Morris 1100 1100cc motor got 20kw atw on a mainline dyno,
and my Morris 1100S 1275cc motor with an sc12 running 7.5psi got 40kw atw on the same dyno. both stock motors aside from the supercharger on the 1275. I'm currently rebuilding the 1275 so we'll see what happens then.
