Title: Re: Show Us Your Cal-Look Type 3 Engines Post by: Zach Gomulka on March 20, 2014, 05:10:26 am That's a tough one! I think a properly hot rodded type one is a thing of beauty, right up there with a flathead V8. A type three, especially if it all remains under the deck, is a form follows function thing. My old T3 1776's looks didn't reflect any of the money I had spent on it ::)

Building a new Type III motor using a new Aleania case, it has an 8mm stud. No one seems to have anything I need, There step studs are to short.

I've had 3 to 4 different exhaust systems over the years, currently I have upgraded to a CSP with full heater boxes, it's dyno'd the same numbers with a old Berg 1-5/8" 4 tune header as it did with a A-1 sidewinder ( one of the first batch of type 3 sidewinders ) as for the trans, today's standards you could call it a pro street plus plus, built by Mike Herbert at his old shop MPH Transmissions, it received the best of the best, everything hand picked... its a 12V late case, klinkenberg 412 R/P - 3.78/2.06/1.21/0.89 Berg super beetle main shaft, dual snap ring super diff, welded 3rd/4th steel shift forks, all german bearings, old school cast iron side cover, Berg short axles, only the best of the best, homage to Clyde Berg with a " Big Nuts " on the trans ect... near future plan is upgrade to IRS as I recently scored a IRS Quaife diff and install that nice CSP exhaust w/heat... once I figure out a new location for the full flow oil filter, the CSP exhaust wants my left bumper bracket mounting point... currently my OC47 filter is hanging on to this spot and I almost forgot a restored / reconditioned Bosch 010 done up by Glenn for me... should be a great fit with the short rods !
