Dave-o, I tried emailing you earlier this year about the fish as was after the template for the bracket. I actually have a Vortech in my garage that I bought because it was so cheap. I'm still undecided on Centrifugal of twin turbo and would be interested on the price of the bracket templare...

Oi London, speak English my good man!

Wotcha Rodders and all. Merry Christmas to all members, especially those who buy engines via me, those who help me locate a front sump and a special word to the Queen for the New Years Honours list for some bloke who is holding some rods for me!!! :o) Mark

Oh man you've got a Bizzarrini????? What do you mean you wont ever see it???? Very rare. Only seen them in the flesh at Goodwood Revival. Nice. Also Stratos'... proper cars!

These engines were GBP325 so thats circa US600, at the bottom end of your range. Is that reasonable enough?

No way?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? 'er Maj's bastard Government screw us on anything over about 17 quid!!!!!

Yes, we're nearly at 2USD to the 1GBP, not been like that for years, and probably 2 decades since it held at that level! Downside is it makes the insular US even less likely to import and can have a negative on your local small manufacturers who export to the US. There's a downside to every...

Congratulations mate. Do your 3 months temp contract plus as much work as possible then get your arse over to the UK and the rest of Europe, tour round with a back pack working your way and head off to Aus and NZ for the same. A year off doing this with mature and educate you much further...

... and not just the cam! Cranks are machined out of time end to end so what at full power the engine actually optimises the timings by twisting the crank straight! How cool is that!

Belt rubbing. If the current cambelt hasn't gone, then a previous might have. Don't worry there wont be any damage.I had several bags of the stuff in mine. Also dreaded 90-92???????? Don't know where you got the idea any were problems from mate?

Well I thought that first but then the runner's spacing doesn't look right? The lower half of the original intake more or less has the inlets in pairs, these look equidistant on each side. We are talking for the 1UZ right????

Am I missing something or is there a reason the manifold lies flat, should it not be in a 'V'???

what cams swap did you do?

Steve, Speak to Roger at Thor Racing near Coventry (I think). He can sort all this for your conversion in a 1 stop shop, plus the couple of prices he told me for some bits I needed seemed reasonable. Cheers M

Mate that's the nicest LS I've seen for ages! I've never considered one until this year and I'm starting to appreciate them a bit more. Your wheels are very nice but still a bit too bling for me. I like a nice matt finish, or black centres with polished alloy outer rims (hallibrand style)...

I've been too busy to contribute to this thread until now but funnily enough Striker, KS and Justen have all asked/discussed with RMS all my questions and thoughts! How funny is that. I will continue to no longer post so you guys can asl the q's for me! ;o)

but maybe not production crank and rods??? ;o)

I did look quickly for you but couldn't find it. However if you look on here and search under 'carb' there is a thread going from a year or 2 ago with a picture of a GM dizzy driven from the drivers side bank (UK/Aus/NZ/etc) with a holley carb. I don't know if it's the same guy but I also...

F3000 rules are 3 litre right????? So are you sleeving down, shortening the stroke and going for a rev happy monster? My god, that would sound awesome from a 1 UZ! Mark

Isn't the F40 twin turbo and supercharged?
