It does get pushed in, really fast... fast enough to have momentum which means it likes to carry on in the direction it's travelling, which in this case is straight towards cylinder 3, with a little bit towards 4, relying on pressure to hit 2, and black magic to fill cylinder 1. The cylinder fill and AFR for those 4 cylinders will vary wildly.Quote:

No mistake fella except the blower isn't mounted using my arms now, I have hired a small Mexican prostitute to hold it for me now...... ahemQuote:

P.S I never left the forum, just abandoned the thread as it wasn't a debate anymore. I mean if you look back over the pages at the flaws (the reversed front hubs spring to mind) and a few people saying how stupid it is... how all that work is for nothing.... you will have to redesign this and that now yada yada. Well whilst this was going on me and Jamie already knew the solution, I wouldn't have gone to all that trouble if we didn't. The solution itself is SO simple its staring everyone in the face but at this stage I couldn't be bothered to explain it - too tired of all the BS, but before anyone starts off again - no I didn't add anything to the hubs themselves to correct the akerman angles.
But the past few days have been pretty entertaining watching 'you monkeys' squabbling lol
and thank you goes to Benn and Simps for standing up for me, you guys are getting an ice cream cone at Billing (you will have to share it though :d)
Peace OUT
dude, i bumped the thread, i didn't intend to open a can of worms, i was genuinely interested.
funny how you've been watching this for a few days.... john h only woke it up this morning.......
and instead of calling us monkeys.... why not enlighten us instead of insulting us...........
.
please redeem your self and show us some pictures of the "strength added that we cant see" to the front engine mounts as i dont think this is in anyway suitable for a 2.0l super charged engine.
edit: i am more then welcome to suggestions on my project thread. (make sure they are suggestions and not insults)

Redeem myself? I don't owe any of you anything in the slightest.
I know its a long time anyways (there are reasons for this which I won't go into why I put the project on hold) but when this car is done I will post on here again with videos and whatnot, so keep them thread subscriptions active!
you tit martin, how the facking hell is that ever a finished mount.
welcome back ish johnny, get a new unit sorted yet? this is still one of my favourites and cant wait to see it finished
lol ok. your always so defensive.
