Beautiful. I'd bolt down the valve cover before the next drive though.

Hahahaha! you noticed that huh!
I mean you are observative. You are a good mechanic.

I sent the valve cover to be chromed instead of the current powder coat. I like chrome and I took the bolts to be chromed too.

Fantastic! Is that a Caterham or one of the other S7 variants? What model? Please excuse the question if that is actually a Lotus.

Its a Westfield. I bought it in England and shipped it here in the US.

There are lots of Seven Variants, S2k engine is the premium engine for this type of car. Majority are using Zetec-Pinto engine-Duratec.
Those Ford engines are garbage.

Some are using Toyota atlantic engine 4age, some are 5 valves Toyota. Others are Ser Nissan engines, RX7 rotaries and Mazda Miatas.
Flying Miata are selling Westfield with Miata engine

....but none are better than S2k engine. Top of the line powerplant for 7.
