dog box might be up for sale Roy

once the "lay shaft"(bit beyond my knowledge sorry) is fixed.

From what I understand the stock lay shaft was retained to keep the box quiet but it meant that it would break every now and then savage rises in torque and power will do that

the box is at ppg getting this replaced I believe

stock bottom end my arse hat

1400r,

unsure if its your mates or not.

A couple of days ago Shaun (Boostworx) had an rb20 with a t88 strapped on the side of it. Made around 346rwkw?

Hows it boost in the first 2 gears?

None the less thats a rather impressive figure.

Having recently looked at some RB20 rods, they look to be strong things. The pistons, well who knows how strong they are, if car is tuned well and its not stressed for long durations????

The bearings will cop a beating, but again the piston speeds etc are relatively low because of the short storke ... i would not be surprised if its a freshened stock bottom end?!?!?!

If i can get an answer on piston sizes i have given myself a $500 budget to build up my spare motor and see what power/revs the pin come sout of the grenade

When I blew my original rb20 up I took a good look at the rods and I would think they could probs take a fair beating and all.

My 1st impression was "bloody hell they are short rods.

I would think that the bottom end if new(or good nick) could take a close to 300rwks for quite some time. As long as there was no det and gas temps were kept down a bit. The 8.5 cr would help alot too.

Of course this is just an opinion and I could be far from the mark.

Oh well.
