Brilliant Could do with some Pledge on there by the looks though

 

bling lol

 

Never mind young clive that would appeal to Old Clive's taste no end.
His boot full of cleaning products would put a shine on that that David Dickinson would be proud of.

 

PMSL............. easy fella LOL

 

35kg I believe.. driver maybe slightly light too and insane

 

lmfao..

 

You going to be making an appearance at Shakey any time soon John ?

 

Not that much then.

John,

Any idea on the weight of your wagon ?

 

Talking of weight, what would you guys estimate P2 to weigh when complete ??

 

With your cleaning product selection in the boot? About 2.75 tonnes by my reckoning

 

Mine was 1185kg @ 30-130 day if that helps. Has lost maybe another 5-10kg since. I still have all the dash, heater, normal boot and fuel tank, front doorcards etc.

 

1185, thanks MH, & 4135 combined weight when you gave Daz a ride


I will be collecting the shell from SPR Coachworks this coming Saturday then heading Norf to drop it off with Daz for some trial fitments as recommended from RCM.

The shell has not received too much work as of yet due to other commitments but SPR said a month up Daz's will be good to allow them to shift other customers work and they intend to hit P2 on it's return.

 

lol @ 4135..

will be nice to see a car rather than just engine

 

Will take some proper pictures of it when it lands up here.

 

Insane!!!!

 

I've CC'd the cylinder heads this afternoon which for those that don't know is working out the volume of the combustion chamber.

Grease to seal around the bore.


Mulitpack CD cover ideal for this job


Fill the sealed hole with fluid




It took 47cc of fluid to fill the sealed chamber and the piston dish is 20cc.

So with the 1.6mm thick gaskets this gives us a compression ratio of 8.45:1 or thereabouts. That will do nicely

 

sweet, nice little tip, were u pick that up

 

A 1991 episode of Mission Impossible.

 

very similar compression to what i,m going to be running daz

it should love the boost

 

What power levels are you currently running Shawy ?

 

He isn't yet clive its a work in progress.

Huh, ok mate. mmmmm nice project this one. I wasn't sure if he had another car.

Daz, T.Kit is being delivered direct to yours, Freight Monday 14th.

 

Roughly about 550bhp for time attack and 700bhp + for dragging totb .

 

You can't just assume the piston dish is 20cc, you're best move to be certain is to repeat what you've done on the head, on the block. Use some grease at the top of the cylinder wall and bring the piston to TDC. If the piston is close to, or above the top of the fire face at TDC, you can bring it down a known amount (usually 1mm) then subtract the volume (7.47cc for 1mm in this case) from the final measurement.

Although in this case Daz's measurement will be close enough so as to make little difference (if the CR was 8.6 I don't suppose it would result in a change of gasket thickness!) I just thought I would at least offer the option!

 

As you said Paul it's close enough and as the heads have had some work done on the chambers I wanted to know what the volumes were for sure. The pistons sit flush with the block face when at TDC and I felt little need to measure piston dish volume as the box they came in clearly said the dish was 20cc.
If I was doing a full blue printed/indexed engine then I'd go to such lengths but in this case I just wondered what the chamber volumes were. I had no idea and wanted to double check the gaskets I got were the right ones. Better find out pre assembly than post assembly if I had the wrong ones.

 

ust collected the rolling shell all trailered up ready for a 4.00 am start up to DD's.

Will be leaving it there for a month or more so Daz can trial fit the motor, box and everything else.
All the braided is being removed (fuel, fire eater system, hydraulics (handbrake) etc and staying with Daz.

When he is happy I'll have the 22B bumper / splitter and arches waiting at SPR Coachworks. New bonnet & reverse scoop is already there.

Just need Turbo, headers, exhaust, seats, harnesses, suspension, brakes, wheels, toilet roll holder and a few other bits.

The next time Daz sees the shell it will be all lovely and shiney and ready to fit all that has been tried & tested.

Will then be off to the boys at RCM to do their stuff checking, balancing, alignments, mapping etc. Running in will be on a dyno, not roads.


Decided on a cool colour scheme but not telling a soul unless advanced cash payment are extremely high
There will be 4 names (decals) very evident on the finished car, all of who had major parts & one long term sponsor.

All down to me then to learn the cars feel, find it's limits (that will be a fookin laugh knowing how mental the P1 is)

Should have the best part of 650 Bhp weighing in around the 1100 kgs mark)

YEEEEEE FKN HAAAAAAAAAA

 

Nothing related to P2 but this is worth a look.

All at 1,000.000 fps and good sounds too.

whats this car going to be used for?

 

shopping

 

Transporting the elderly from their care home to their free monthly bingo session at Gala on the 4th Tuesday of every month.

Next stupid question?
