Morton's blue VP Executive

[greenfoam]

The VP has a little longer runners, the VP manifold is better . I'm thinking about making some V6 manifolds once I get some more practice going on manifold construction I might go chop one down to have some investigation on the best way to fix one

 

[Morton]

Ah yes, I remember seeing some pictures of an oddly configured intake manifold, divided clean down the middle to run on two separate banks? There's a good bit of improvement to be had over the stock design, really Are we looking at completely custom runners now?

I'm hoping, with all this fine weather, to get out and run a quick g-tech tonight. Here's hoping for some nice numbers It's been a while since I got out and launched her hard!

 

[greenfoam]

Yep, new runners is the way of the future for the V6 but keeping the stock fuel rails as usual there might not be alot to gain really but I'll probably give it a shot after I have the V8 one complete and bolted up

thanks fitzy

I've made a decision!!

First, I'm finding a place to rent - somewhere with a garage. Right now, I live on the floor of a friend's house in a sleeping bag... I aim to change that soon. Once I have a property to live in, (hopefully with phoenix from the forum, and his girlfriend), I'll buy myself a second hand bike from the trading post! Hopefully this will set me back no more than $100 - and then the fun can begin:

I'm tearing the motor down!

Piece-by-piece I plan to disassemble, clean, overhaul and modify everything I can get my grubby little hands on - perhaps as in-depth as hiding all my wiring - I'm not sure yet. But I want this to be one clean little V6 - and if I intend on removing the heads for porting, then I don't see any reason why I shouldn't go overboard and tear her down

All wishes granted, I should be able to begin sometime in October. *rubs hands together* time to start drawing up some plans!

*cackles*

by bike, do you mean a motorbike? if so, go find an old postie bike cheap lol

 

[Morton]

You should move in with me and the other matt!! All the cheaper

Just ran another g-tech tonight. Backed up my former 7.35 with a 7.38 and 7.32, but I'm getting FAR too much wheelspin launching from the emergency stopping lane of the eastern freeway

I think I need to wait until 4am, start in the MIDDLE lane, and spray a whole bunch of belt grip on my back right tyre ^^ hahahaha

edit: lol stocky, I mean pedal bike although, now that you mention motorbikes... ...

hmm, I should get my bike Ls and a second hand Vespa God, you're a GENIUS!!! I'm going to ebay, RIGHT NOW!
