nice looking car mate what are your plans?

[immortality]

Thought i'd add some more pics of shiny bits.

the rods are spool H beam rods. standard length (6.38") and weigh in at 555grams +/- 1 gram for a matched set

also added some pics of the new valves fitted and a old set for comparison

nice looking car mate what are your plans?

cheers mate. prepping a new engine at the moment. H beam rods, forged pistons, fully balanced and blue printed, modified oiling system, fully ported heads, standard reverse mounted intake manifold (for now untill i get my hands on a US buick manifold) Raptor blower and a big hit of nitrous for giggles spinning at 7K rpm all day

Been a while since i've lurked on here and likewise since you've updated this thread mate, anything new?

[immortality]

Hi mate,

It's been a bit sad really, the car has been parked up for the most part, reg on hold etc

Fairly broke at the moment, haven't had a lot of spare cash to throw at the car, had a run of bad luck with domestic appliances, so far i've had to replace the dishwasher, the microwave, the washing machine and the TV, the last 2 this month (the TV ate the cash for my valves and the washing machine likewise my forged pistons)

I have some new engine mounts on the way as well as a set of alloy 20% under driven pulleys.

How you been traveling?
