Any progress? Curious to see how this thing goes in a rwd platform

Sump is at fabricators for enlargement. He has yet to quote for the cost of it so until he does and Simon gives the nod it wont be finished. If i get a call today it should be in his possesion within a week. Sump will be around 8.5 litre capacity in total.

Sump is finished...will pick up from fabricators tomm.

sump on and then send...yahoo!!

this engine with the right turbo/s will easily produce over 1000hp with around 30psi of boost.

Will be fun in a RWD platform!

What power figure are you chasing with it?

well considering the ex housing and the internals of this engine iam hoping to see about 620rwhp on 23-24psi if all goes to plan if i can get upto 650 would be nice but its still gonna be a handfull to drive considering it will be on full boost by at least 4500 and rev all the way through to 9000 or whereever the power begins to drop off i guess. considering a larger housing at this point but i still wanna keep a lil bit of the response factor there.

    • I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
    • Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.
    • No clips on this one like the other connector. Only that red tab that I can push slightly up.
    • For any loom connector that has an obvious release that resists pushing far enough to unclip, just spray some silicone lube into it. You might also benefit from using a bent screwdriver or small pick to push in the right place at the right angle.
    • Hey all, I went to try and fix my indicator not canceling, but I couldn't remove the clockspring cable under the column so I could twist that green thin. Anyone know how to remove this cable? I see this red tab but didn't have any luck. I was thinking of unscrewing it but wasn't sure if it would cause issues. I did notice for my indicator stalk, 2 out of 3 cables were plugged in but the last cable wouldn't fit in the stalk. I'm getting it's for fog lights. It was like this when I originally pulled it off.
