As per my post above the 944 family of boxes are very strong as Renegade in the US do Chevy SB conversions on the 944 on the basic standard 5 speed box. The strongest and best suited to the extra V8 power is the LSD 5 speed Porsche Turbo box (Porsche 951) and I believe the Turbo S is slightly...

Bingo...., bango! You know what I mean.

Hi, I'm mating it to a 944 so needing an adapter to the torque tube and the transaxle is about 1.5m further behind. To be honest the transaxle isn't that big (though it is a bit long) and I guess it could fit in the void normally occupied by a diff. Undoubtedly there would be a bit of body...

A fighting second and 6th I think. Should really have done it last year as it was ideal and they missed the opportunity. For a private outfit against the might of Audi it's pretty impressive. Rumours are that Henri Pescarolo himself will liquidate it all and be a consultant to Peugeot...

1-0 with 20 mins to go. Not bad against probably the best team in the world. Not really watching that much as MotoGP re runs from earlier today are on. Far more exciting than footie!;)

Dave with the greatest respect ...... is it you or me with brain fade???? Why would you have an electrical driven altenator to generate electric???? Maybe on theory there is some way but you'd need a few hundred k's of battery to store it all for charge/recharge cycles. Out of interest TVR...

Well it's over. I couldn't go this year and Christ have I taken abuse off my Mates! Text messages questioning my sexuality for missing a petrolhead beer tour does make a grown man feel uncomfortable.... but hey it's the least amount of sympathy they'd expect from me if they let the boys...

Wha - hey.... it's green and gold against .... errrrr.... green and gold!!!!! ;) Go the Socceroos, though to be fair as a Brit it's always natural to support the underdog!!! ha ha Cheers guys Mark

Jibbbbbby and all other Yanks who think Hollywood version of the world is the only one please read this extract from wikipidea... "Both American football and soccer have their origins in varieties of football played in the United Kingdom in the mid-19th century, and American football is...

I haven't seen any serious F1, Moto GP or similar painting their radiators black and they more than anyone need serious heat disapation as when on the grid there are no cooling fans to pass air and they can overheat in under a minute. In reverse then how come all domestic radiator heaters are...

Ok I've read up further and semi conclude the following... I'm not sure lean burn mode (Stratified) would be achievable as the VAG head appears to have another butterfly in the inlet tract which closes the port up a bit and therefore volume through smaller area creates greater velocity and...

Above in a nutshell really. http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/news/default.asp?storyId=14095 Haven't had the heads off of VAG FSI engine to see the size of the direct injection and common rail system but was wondering if it would work? As many here are considering totally different fuelling...

Also would you not have to have one of them with a compressor in reverse so they could mirror each other in mounting? Low would be good for centre of gravity but as mentioned hard to plumb and could suffer from heat from the exhaust. You could mount them high though on opposite sides ala...

And there was me thinking poor Guts had a deprived childhood! ;o) Seriosly well done to your folks for working for it as what a place to bring up kids. M

I'd never belong to a club who'd have me as a member! ;o) Seriously though I find marque orientated car clubs full of nasal sounding geeks who go on about period features and can quote part numbers verbatim. I've got an AC Cobra but don't belong to the Cobra Club UK as it's just the same old...

ROTFPMSL!!!!!!!!!! ;)

Hey could you post the measurements please here as they would be very handy for others. Cheers Mark

Surely 1 UZ with 2 UZ heads would be better?

Tomo, The sump to oil tank is effectively the scavange pump. Out of interest I looked for Dry sump stuff off ebay last night and there are a few bargains to be had. Having put so much effort into you engine to go home made and unproven on something as imprtant as the oil supply is a big risk...

Good point about fuel dropping out and sitting at the bottom of an intercooler. I guess you're right it would work in the right application such as a straight forward bolted on M112. Infact the more I think about it the more I believe its a brilliant idea! Cheers M
