What are you doing with that center shared exhaust port?

 

Yes !

 

Haha this makes me laugh..... shitty news brett but can't wait to see the new beast. I know coming from you it will be extremely interesting

 

It's all good man - have done over 4000kms on the "wounded" engine without any issues whatsoever . I'm a big fan of these bendy apexs - they have bought me a lot of time .

Getting Excited about how the new engine will perform though !

 

Bump, I wanna know what is happening in the mighty Waikato!!!!

I WANT UPDATES!!!!!!!!

 

Mouhahha
Brettspeed black ops

 

Nothing to see here
Engine should be ready next weekend according to builder .

 

Ready? As in put together? Bah! I wanna see pics of the insides

 

/\ that will be pretty pointless unless it actually achieves something

 

Around here, trying something new IS achieving something

 

Even if it doesnt work, we still want pictures.

PLLLLLLLLEAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEE

 

cant wait to see what you are up too. While you are at it speak with Cam about his mod on the water jackets around the sparkplugs.

 

Thanks for that OD but I have never had any connection with Cam so I doubt he will be willing to share his secrets with me .


As far as pictures go ... I do have some but would rather be posting results first . I'm sure the pics would just lead into a discussion about why it wont work.

Here is a teaser though ....




Dowelling : hmmmmm

 

Moar

 

whoa--how many hacksaw blades did it take to cut that iconel port liner? lol!
Interesting--I think I know where you are going.
How much flow are you shooting for?
Are you porting too? Changing the timing of the ports any?
If you are going for as high as I think you are--wouldnt it be a good idea to install some different rotors?

 

/\ just one blade and a **** load of elbow grease .

My aim is to break 350whp and run on that reliably for a long *** time on the same GREDDY turbo at the SAME flow , that currently produces 320whp.

Porting - not really doing anything at all porting wise - just a bit of a cleanup.

 

doh! just saw this. those pings are the most subtle, painful, dead-reckoning sounds I've ever heard... fortunately I've only ever heard one and I shed a tear for it.

 

True . I have heard that sound quite a lot !!!

 

Things have been slow around here lately (8club), can't wait for next week now! We had our first flurries of snow last week, had the car in the garage since.... its pretty nice out today though, might be time for one last cruise

 

are you going to do thicker apex seals or anything like that?

 

hurry up Brett, you know who might beat you to the magic number. lol

 

Cutting the end off the sleeve should provide better flow. How will it be held in place?

 

Going to RX7 style (deep) ALs seals

 

I might be able to prevent that . LOL
