 Shocked This is goin' to be a monster!! Hope that the hours are on your side Roman and that you make it to BR!

On the topic of head-porting, for those scandiniavians who have a chance to pick up the swedish car magazines like Automobil and Wheels Magazine in your newsstand, there are some interesting features about both Johannes( JPM) (Automobil) and VW head-porting (Wheels Mag.), I think it's in the latest issues currently available.

Go Roman!

I hope you get the carburators working. We got a lot of troubles with the 62 Geers and the 58 Bergs . The americans sell the parts and and let us get a lot of work . Angry

My Berg 52s worked like clockwork, but the Terminators needed some adjustment on the butterflies to close correctly. I hope to see how they work soon...

Time to go to bed, have to get up again in 3.5 hours to do some machining before work...

They are flowed with the intake manifolds now. 297 cfm at 16 mm (.630").
The engine won't be started during the weekend, one of the valve locks was different than the other so I had to order a new one. The customer service at Del West is great, they are sending me a new one by UPS express free of charge. They won't even charge me for the freight!

I have everything now except the keeper. Time to go to the garage and measure the valve pockets and pushrod length.
Final assembly during the weekend - Bug run is less than a week away!

286 hp - 330 Nm (243 foot pound). We only´had time to change the Jetting and timing but JPM thought 300 would be in the reach if we changed the venturis to 50 mm and had some more run time on the engine. I more or less broke in the cam on the dyno.
Sadly thhe trans broke down on the first run. But I had a trap speed of 186 km/h even if I had to go from first to third gear and let off gas after 350 meter.


More later, I am a bit tired now....

Last weekend at bug run my tranny didn't work, it locked up the reverse so I only did one run before I left and went home.
Today I missed the shift at the first run and had some serious tire shake. The second run was better: 11.02 -191 km/h.
I didn't have time ro make any more runs due to some serious oil down from a Nitro funny.
10's tomorrow?

11.02 is a misprint from me, my best ET was 11.05.
I have only had 4 runs this weekend and I missed a shift on two of them and forgot to relerase the line lock on them. Only one decent run so the potential must be a lot higher.
Regarding the engine: The FK-98 and the Terminators does not feel a big as they sound, the big engine makes it feel quite smooth. It Idles at 600(!) rpm and it runs fair until 3500 were the torque starts to feel HARD.
I will post photos and videos later when I get them from friends.

Front shocks are stock from 1959. There are a lot of expensive parts on the car but the font shocks are there from factory!

I tested my car at SBP, the swedish equvivalent to MOT, TÜV, Biltillsynet etc. today and it was approved without any problems in the same condition as I race it, with the exception of a muffler. Two more years until the next test!

I drove the car there, 28 degrees celsius (82 Farenheit) in the shadow and I guess 40 (104F) in the sun.
30 minutes each way and it was long from overheating.
