Torque of the show!
I went to Belvoir Castle steam rally yesterday which was a little muddy underfoot in places to say the least, but it was still a great show even though the number of exhibits was down as a result of the wet conditons.
One of the highlights of the show for me was parked in the low loader park -as is often the case- where this 'Big Banger' ERF E16 with Gardner 6LYT engine was to be found.
With a very conservative power rating of 320bhp, but masses of torque, the 6LYT could have been the saviour of Patricroft, but reliability issues meant that relatively few were sold and to see one in use these days is a rare thing.
