blah blah blah

[wilorichie]

arhhh yes, i now see your point... very true...

although im not sure about the Lexus, when you pop the hood all i see is a massive plastic cover...

so who knows whats going on under there, probably a big Japanese mouse on a wheel...?

rofl @ mouse on a wheel

Pintara has aftermarket redback extractors.... Sports wagon ftw!... It still sounds like absolute crap

[Isola]

Speaking of sounding like shit... why do LS engines sound good in 'vettes, but sound like cancer in a commonwhore?

[Smity42]

scouting run = great success

[boiracer]

that's not enough

plenty in a car that weighs not more than 700kg. my '58's dry weight is 610kg

and was designed in the '30's

Actually, the plan is more along the lines of:

Buy bug with decent motor and buy a second motor.

Rebuild second motor and supercharge it.

Swap engines.

???

Profit.

rebuild second motor and supercharge it

one qld summer

air cooled engine shits itself

fail

buys rotor

apex seals out.

The supercharged engines run a fancy cooling fan and oil cooler

I have given thought to a rotor bug though to be honest. Don't know if I really want to go that overboard though.

That's what she said

I'm feelin' good. Just epic tired.

Do it, you skirt.

[Isola]

Do it, you skirt.

Nah.

Maybe if it was just a track car or something, but CBF when it really comes down to it.

GL to you john but all my years of not owning an aircooled engine built for northern european climate only convinced me I did the right thing by avoiding them.

I dont think I ever saw one that wasnt either just rebuilt or needed rebuilding.

[Smity42]

Noel, what did you think of my cruise route?

[FineLine]

I liked it but am concerned about the length. (insert she said quote for smits)

Wanted to talk to you on thursday night.

[Smity42]

yeah, i thought it might be a bit borderline on length but given the start and end points I couldn't come up with a shorter route.

I should definitely be there this thursday

You might be surprised how robust they actually are. My other two were always at a happy temp even on 32 degree days stuck in standstill traffic on the western freeway for hours on end. Some of the US models even had AC fitted to them and managed to plod along just fine.

The only real problem I've ever found with them (overheating wise) is if you use aftermarket seals. Then they leak oil, and then get too hot because they don't have enough oil to keep them cool.
