Finally had a little time to take the engine out.I thought it ran on3 cilinders the last time I started it so i wanted to take the engine out.  As soon as I took a valvecover of I saw theproblem,  Little damage on the rocker,  Here is the problem,  NOW I am having the head fixed and rebuild the engine. We took the whole engine apart eand everything looks like new so I am happy with that Michael |

harry if you want a pair just call me and there not made of copper ,
copper is to soft and will srink and let the tension of the headstuds go lose.

I am still alive    Made a throttle pedal so the cable hooks up on the passenger side of the car so I don't brake the cable with my heavy right food. Also made a new bracket for the clutchslave which should be a lot stronger so it won't bent and replaced the plastic line with a steel one. Michael |

Hey Michael,
My 63 Ghia will be in Holland in June/July. It will have my Turbo kit from AJ Sim on it. So when the time comes I will call you and meet up to say hello and get some tips from you on a good setup here
Later
Paul

So it's been a long time since my last post but a lot has happend I made it to Bug-in and had the chance to do some runs . They weren't to bad but I expected a little more. Found out that the car is to light in the front.In third gear it wants to go all directions but straight. Also the front wasn't strong enough so by the time I was full in third gear the wind pushed the front down hitting the ground and bending it so the front fenders touched the wheels  So now I'm going to move the battery to the front and stiffen things up. My best time was a 12.60 not the 11 I want for now but I think it will come in the future. I also put the car in the dyno and managed to make one run. 299.9 bhp @6500 rpm and 367nm This was a run where it leaned out in the secondary step of the holley. The holley I'm using has a vacuum secondary so now I have to put a metering block in it to make the settings ajustable. Michael |

At least you're starting with something nice & light Michael, you can put the strength (and weight) back in only where its needed. I had a look at your car at EBI and it looked great. Sounds like it was a scary ride!
What was your terminal speed btw?

Here goes, after 2 earlier tries on the dyno i finally got the carb to function like it should. `Did a lot of runs and after turning up the boost to 1.3 bar the clutch started to slip with 385bhp and 425 nm going to try to keep it straight @ bitburg this weekend Michael |

It's been a long time since I updated this topic. I only made one pass in Bitburg and it turn out to be on 3 cylinders .I had a valve seat gone loose  20 + pulls on the dyne with no problem and on the last meeting of the year shit happens. I took the engine apart and only one intake valve was slightly bent. I'm having all the seats renewed this winter to make sure it won't happen again. I brought the car over to the Uk last week to have the cage redone and tagged so I should be able to race everywhere. The car is at Jim Smith's shop right now for the cage and a bunch of other modifications and I'm very curious how it will turn out. Michael |
