Daves Compound Twin turbo XUD

[Dave]

hm thought better update this, after the recent tragic fail of biblical proportions that engine got chucked, and the next engine is pretty much scrap aswell, which is pretty shite. Photos anywho.

fubar block coming out,




car looking very sorry,


old block.


turbo had to come apart to check for damage, was ok though.




my dad chopping up a scrap crank so, gonna be doing some weight tests and stuff on a piece of material.


Thought was about time I made a visit to the scrap yard aswell, still have half a trailer full of old gearboxes and puch maxi parts....


And to my disappointment, the worn out donor block, must have done some insane miles, tons of piston slap, and bores glazed to f*ck, which I cant be arsed to do anything with, not worth reworking internals or wasting a gasket/oil.


and the workspace....


Have dropped a totally stock block back in her now so have to just watch boost until I can get hold of a good bottom end to play with again... I missed boost going down to see Darren Ruan and James in next few days unfortunatly its not going to be running anywhere near what I wanted it to be
