Miniman76 Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 So after all the hard work getting the car ready for an invitational meeting to test we lasted five laps till our engine expired with the exhaust cam gear disidergrating and then yer putting everything out of time then of course every thing saying hello broken cam shafts etc all bent valves and some marks in the pistons YAY........ so as you may see its broken all the caps that hold the cams in and now heres the cams the inlet cam gear is also cracked on close inspection but now have a few cams. and more so now this means an engine rebuild as well as upgrades........

Miniman76 Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 now for the more interesting bits some of you may know we no longer have a gear stick in the car. its now going to be all air shifted via paddles on the wheel . yes it is still a h pattern gearbox with an air assisted clucth just to try something new that a good friend has being playing with. more pictures of the rear of the car to come aswell with the whole boot being cut out for undertray and air tank / compressor setup as you can see i have installed a new dash and moved all the switches down to where the gear stick used to be to try to make it easier for me and remove clutter of the columb new exhaust is made to suit the new tray at the rear in the pic you can see the new compressor and air tank that has been mounted for the air shift a bit of a blur but the new 4age engine has been built new cp pistons 4agze rods 7 rib block etc and piper cams have set the timing and basically started straight away after waikatio engine re conditioners have done all the testing and machining on the block with a home ported head from dad. finally ran the car at work today to see if the gear box will shift and the clutch etc does its job all seems to just needs to be speed up but thats just in the software almost ready for gtrnz this year ....... 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
