Compressions just under 12...it's tricky to get it any higher with a small crank and lots a lift...my pistons hold 10cc each...more like buckets than notches!!  |

Thanks been a change in the motor I was going to put in it to. Picked up a new Scat three piece case the other day. Was going to put my old 2109cc ida motor in to start with. But now going straight with a 2276cc with the Hilborn from Mike Lawless. Still hoping to have the car running this year. |

OK a update not really about the NSU. Not to much work has been done on the NSU this year as my weekends have been taken up working at the national motor museum in Beaulieu www.beaulieu.co.uk The on going project at the moment is the Allard Dragster which is Europe first dragster, look here for more history about the car www.theaccelerationarchive.co.uk/acag/acag.html We as a team take the Allard to car show around the country where we do our best to promote the sport of Drag Racing and its history. This Monday 24th i had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with Don Garlets at Beaulieu www.garlits.com as he and his family was over from the US for the week as Don was being Honour at the British Drag Racing Halll Of Fame gala awards dinner on the Saturday night 22nd. www.britishdragracinghof.co.uk All I can say is what a really nice guy Don is who took the time to chat about his life in the sport. Any way over the Christmas holidays I have two weeks off work so the plan is to finish off one of the two motors for the NSU. One being a 2109cc 76X94 with Hilborn FI and the other being a 1832cc 66X94 with ida,s. Will post more info about the spec of the motors went I get round to taking some photos. It's good to see that people are posting a bit more now after Russell post the other day, and will try my best to post a bit more as this is the best VW forum out there if you ask me. |
