Re: No longer a ''budget" race GTV

I have a feeling the Hewland is going to cost more than a FEW converted and modified 24V transaxle Alfas.

Re: JK's v6 book

The cast manifolds angles upwards steeply, maybe they thought more beneficial as hot air wants to go up? Or the engineer working on it had too much veno and mixed up the Nord's angle with the V6's! Can't trust those eye-talians. :lol: Greg, Have you looked at Beninca's 24V header? Simple design. May...

Re: JK's v6 book

JK,

Is your car the argento bianco 75 at time marker 4:37 in the video? Were you wearing a brown sweater?

Re: Ooops, I dropped a valve

I think my engine is having early signs of possible sodium valve failure. All exhaust lobes were pitted and even the base circle showed signs of wear, suggesting the lash went to 0. Impossible that I set it at 0. It must have tightened up. Inlet lobes were in excellent shape. This means the cams the...

Re: grease - from Lithuania

What is the specs for the GT? Compression, pistons, heads, cams, ecu? Did you I'm building a 3.0 24V and I'm curious how you got it to go to 8K rpm reliably.

Re: Mats Strandberg (SWE)

Oooooooooo nice!

I can't wait to drive mine. I skimmed the heads and cleaned up the ports and it should respond better now with those cams.

Btw are those 17" wheels lighter than the 16" black sport pack wheels?

Re: Supercharged 12V/Stratos copy/engine tech type stuff

Greg, how does the sprintex compare to the new TVS eaton in terms of price and drive powr and discharge temps? Looks like the twin screw has the slight advantage.

Alfa v6 tappets

Guys, The exhaust tappet now cost USD50!!!! Crazy! The intakes are more "reasonable" at USD29 each. What is the alternative to this? Remachine and reharden? When swapping to new cams I was told to only use new tappets but with the new price, cams are cheaper then tappets. You should be wor...

Re: JK's v6 book

Jim, Remember Baz built Kevin's 3.2? I saved all the photos and he had to make a few small pieces to make everything work, but no mention of interference with the crank. But the extra throw of the 3.2 with JK rods may need some work. He had to make the flywheel spacer and a spacer for the crank and ...

Re: 75 12valve 3l engine - Australia

Nah mate, I got some plans for them. LHD/RHD doesn't matter. Although I would prefer broken ones, but just let me know the price in case I wanna buy them.

Re: Back again...

Ben

Google active nsx exhaust. You will see how this nsx owner did up his system based on some harmonics he wanted to attenuate and amplify. I think the tuned length should be similar for our engines too. Sounded nice, but I personally prefer a Unicorse or the Unicorse look-alike they make in the UK.
