Good stuff! Keep up the good work

bit of an update, new engine is in and going strong

it made just over 200hp at the wheels right on 8000rpm

have done a few laps at winton and it felt really strong, i did a new pb lap of 1m37.8
in the morning but was on the trailer by lunch time as the alternator gave up.
I dont think it liked the rpm, might look into underdriving it some...

no pics this time sorry, will get some next time i have it out for a run

Ended up pulling the pin - It was 45deg's up there that day
I only do it for fun and pushing an open car in that heat - AINT NO FUN

Looking to try again soon

David, unfortunately there is no rwd version of the sr20ve

so its a fwd sr20ve cylinder head on a rwd sr20de bottem end.
theres lots of fiddly things required to make it work..... u need custom manifolds, crank fire ignition and to relocate and
remote feed the VVL solenoids

but it is a lot of fun!

how'd you go at winton Ziggy?

HEy man, I’m looking into doing the same motor swap into my Datsun 1200, was it a lot of work ? Any heads up tips on the swap overall?

Hope you make it to the BBQ day on the 11th.

I am seriously considering copying much of your power plant and drive train for the yella terra

Is there a particular RWD version that you got or have you converted it to RWD? ... just one of many Q's

Great job

David

oooh yeah it'll be hot out there! I once went on a day that was forecast for 27deg in Melbourne. Hit 39 at Winton!

you going in the clubman? my best last time out was a 1m38.1

cant wait to get out there again, this motor will have a little more giddy up (if it doesnt fall apart hehe)
