I was just laughing bout the mention of the hat in the RW thread.

 

Got a FG F6 long block, intake manifold from that is now sitting in Luke's car and Flex plate is in the back of Lazy Brennan's (car people, the best recyclers in the world)

 

Engine has been stripped, will be sent off for machining, cleaning and check crank alignment. Following bits going in 

ARP Head and Main Studs

Spool H Beam Rods

Mahle Pistons

Factory Crank - going on what you've said bout your car I may look at getting mine doweled as well. Not that I will be making as much power as you

Upgraded Oil Pump housing and gears

Atomic Timing Gear

ACL Bearings

Engine Girdle

I'm still deciding what way I am going to go, but I will through the TBRE cams in to start. If I'm not a fan will just put the FG one's in it.

 

Think I have everything, probably something I missed. I am starting assembly asap as then I may have it in before RW2018 haha

Sounds like it's getting all the good stuff in it should be solid when done. Yeh the doweling the crank is the only way to fix the problem I think. I'm pretty well certain mine has come loose because the car was constantly jerking at such low revs because of the big cam when driving the return road. I wanted to do it to mine last time I had it apart but I'd like to put a semi decent motor together instead of the standard scrap yard motor it has now before I go drilling an expensive flywheel.

What's your plan with the old f6 Pistons and rods wanna sell them to me? Haha.

While Mark is talking to Gav from GT Graphics, it would be a perfect time to get that sticker made as well

 

 

Keen to get the cars to Roll on Racing
