!916 base pobjoy engine
Hi mate, I have the 1916 base model stan pobjoy engine currently fitted with dual kadrons and thunderbird extractors, I need to run it with all
standard exhaust and intake equipment for engineering purposes, just need to know roughly which directions to go with jetting on the standard 1600tp
carby, which I believe is a 34pict?
It will all be OK in the end, if it's not OK it's not the end!

Yeah wasn't sure on where the engineer would stand on that one, he seems quite strict, but its also a good thing as he is rms approved. Ill have a
chat to him and see how I go. Thanks for all the helpful advice guys.

What year model is the car ? Do you have disc brakes ?
There's really no point getting other stuff engineered to then run a motor capacity that is not legal for the car !

What happens if you transfer your over 2L car from interstate to NSW? if it was legal there does it swap over ok or do you have to get it
reengineerinspected(if that aint a word it is now!)

Surely everyone with a large capacity motor don't all have their cars engineered for them..! I know my old car only had 1584 on the papers when it
had a sneaky 1916 in it!

Depends if you want to do it right or 'sneaky'.
If you are having other items engineered, then its really not a problem getting the motor done at the same time. Make sure you get your rear disc
brakes engineered too

Years back, I built up a manx style buggy, threw in an air cooled 2.7 corvair motor, got a roadworthy, drove to the rego branch, they came out,
wrote down the engine number and handed me the plates, rego papers read, VW engine number TO66730ZH. No engineers, buggy was on the road for
over 12 years without issues, then traded it in to a car yard, (for a 79 microbus) See the buggy a couple of years later, horrible rear engine
frame, a metal cover over the engine fan ( restricred aircooling)? smaller rear wheels, great big mud flaps, large steering wheel, still had
standard rear brake drums, yep, engineers know their stuff. A type 1 engine will allways look like a type one engine no matter what size
internals you are running, tell em nothing
