[Ants]

flip man!!!!

What the hell happened?

[355GTS]

it was an unknown engine. RPM boosted it up to 310kw and I revved the crap out of it at Phillip Island.....bang......

[Ants]

the pictures appear to show that the engine had a stock bottom.

yeah...310kw and high revs on a 20 year old engine is gonna go bang!

that engine is fooked...what are the plans now?....

I see that your going with an RPM engine package what does that package contain?

Tomei oil pump is a good idea for sure, but you will also need an oversized oil pan to complete it.

Yes thats exactly what I am planning on doing. RPM oversized baffled oil pan. Should be a great package when its done.

I think it will be ready by May hopefully. I want to run it at Lake Mountain Sprint so fingers crossed.

Cheers.

Time to clean up the rust on the rear window frame:

[355GTS]

Next give the engine bay a touch up coating in black. Leaving most items in the bay and painting around them.

Neat. When is the new engine going to be sorted for the big rig?

So jealous that you still have AC !

[355GTS]

Hopefully get the engine in before End of May as I want to try and do Lake Mountain Rally. Fingers crossed.

[Roy]

Hoping to do the Touring at that event. Should be a good weekend

[LotusGTR]

Bugger me backwards Ev. Was there a single salvageable part from the engine? Hope to be doing Lake Mountain too.....

Engine bay looking sweet. You're putting much love into the old girl.
