From the look inside his engine, i take it he don't service it that well...

Good welding for arc welding..

lol if you read it, he got it as a spare engine lol.

and the more you go through, the better it gets.

making/build a set of slide throttles for his engine. PROPER awesome, some carbon work, kevlar work, loads of casting. proper old school stuff. love it.

awsome skills. But i bet it cost about the same if not less just to buy the parts from someone making it in bulk like the throttle bodies.

them drill bits, pieces of metal, carbon etc all cost a bomb when not brought in bulk.

agreed it would be alot easier and cheaper to buy the bits, but it sure is a good free read lol.

he seems to be doing pretty well considering he admits himself hes never used carbon fibre or kevlar before. nice to see hes just jumped into it and had ago and things have came out pretty well.

you are both so shallow minded.
what do you like to see, a bolted together engine with commonly used parts.

as mike said its more then a car build thread!

Long story short,

Basically he's rebuilding his Engine completely, but half the components he's manufacturing himself (to an amazing quality), modifying pistons from another Engine to fit (and work properly) with his etc.

As said above more than just a bolt on parts build thread.
