Title: A few pics of my new race engine. Post by: Jim Smith on January 28, 2009, 21:57:25 pm 3500cc, Pauter with mech fuel injection on alcohol. Turbo will be replaced with something a little more modern! The current turbo hangs way out the back as we intended to put the motor in an altered/funny car. Going to place the turbo in a more suitable position. Got my old turbo motor up for sale, check it out in the for sale section.

There are some changes to be made else where, fit a dry sump tank, fit larger fuel lines, change the ring and pinion to get better ratios, larger chute.stiffer springs on the rear. Going to add a few more tubes to the rear of the chassis, then with all that done, stick the car on the scales then prob add as many weight bars in the front as the rule book will let me! Or i could use all those extra pairs of trousers!! :D Title: Re: A few pics of my new race engine. Post by: low oval on January 30, 2009, 13:39:23 pm Bad Ass engine!
