Found this chart in a book published just after the war, so presume most of the vehicles listed will be pre war.

May be of use to folk.

Hi

I have got tons of these data charts, but think they are for slightly newer cars, 40's- 60's maybe?

Maybe even into the 70's

Cheers

Dave

Thanks for that Dave. It's interesting to see the valve timings some are quite extreme. The 25HP Wolseley opens its inlet 90 degrees before TDC! Shocked
