offroader huh.

1600 with stock vw gear sounds like a Challenger. What was the car you were hooning in ?

zetec.

all the go of a race spec pinto with out the cost.

In an escort you get into issues with brake booster clearance. What size depends on the engine specs but twin 40s would probably suit.

down side is keeping them in tune.

go efi

So mazda have confirmed that the new coupe thing they are building will be rotang powered.

'Skyactiv R engine' so guessing its going to be running some sort of direct injection. 

proper old man spec triumph sedan.

Offroad Rotangs, Think Rod Millen drove one of these at one stage..

it's only a 4/71 as well, guessing they were aiming for minimal boost

Arr to the Fucken Bee.

Pull the rb20 if it's dead and drop a patrol TB48 into it for some big block 6 action.

I hope he has configured it to tell him when rear wheel speed has dropped to the same level as front wheel speed.

So why do you need an engine check light for a cert anyway ?

Although now Id like to see one done all jeep hot rod style with a roudy rotang.

like dis.

Yeah, Had one of those weird Rotary crank engines that made pistons go up and down.

shame it never caught on.

I like how Fwd drag cars are now like a rear engined dragster than tows the rest of the car along.

pic for thread.

Despite RX3 prices going mental there were 3 of them in the Coromandel rally in the weekend and Van Klinks RX7

The blue one driven by Roger Goss looked straight out of the 70's with slot mags and ducktail spoiler.

They are probably fairly cheap compared to 80k bda mk2 escorts. 

Time for a powerglide?

The guy has a powerglide set up for in it now. Ran a 9.3@150mph on street radials
