Engine for the New Slug
Nearly nearly finished, getting pretty excited about getting my hands on it, just need to get it from the US to here, wait for the gearbox, and plug
it into the car... kind of...
Specs are 84 x 101.6, pauter block, moldex crank, Venolia pistons (.927" pins), angle flow heads built by shawn geers with Crower rocker system, 4
stage dry sump, twin oil coolers, pauter/mcleod twin disc clutch and flywheel, Ct comp oilless turbo - runs a water feed into the bearing area to
remove some heat, custom garrett cored air to water IC. Will be running an autronics ecu, custom fan housing/porsche. E85, some street, but mostly
track stuff.

What setup do you prefer? If it were me I'd use a common plenum for all 4, a bit like the subies do, and try and split the 1/2 3/4 pairs somehow to
isolate them. Either way it's gonna boogie!
Way more badass than Don Pauter's street ghia!

Crower rockers, what inlets would you use ? Ive got a fan housing going on it so space is an issue.

That is a boat anchor. It's not good for much. I'll tell you.... I will do you a favour and take it off you so that it doesn't take up space.
Awesome!!!

Yeah I know, I'm a bit concerned about the weight... I'll stop eating pies. The long block was built for an unlimited street car that never
happened, but he was looking for 8-900 hp. Engine will live with 40lbs of boost and 9000 rpm, not that I intend to push the boundaries anywhere near
that hard. Looking for up to 500 hp on E85, but a very slow build up to that.

Intercooler arrived (garret core, 65mm in/out, -8 water feed), waterpump, and I have a 20l fuel cell that will be the main water reservoir, plus a
radiator mounted... somewhere. Basically the reservoir and pump will mount in the passengers rear seat area along with the pump (pump weighs 6 kg !!)
Plus I need to try and squeeze the oil tank on that side too.
Battery is under passengers side so add it all together with the oil in the tank and Im picking it will be about 45kgs of crap on that side (with oil
and water) . If I stuff a goat in there it will go someway to evening up my considerable bulk.
Turbo is a water cooled deal with sealed bearings (no oil feed), so Im thinking I will run tank - pump - IC - turbo - radiator - tank. Maybe IC and
turbo the other way round. Heres a link to the turbo deal - http://compturbo.com/spotlights/oil-less

with the inlet manifolds they would have worked better if you had collected them like the pipe off the throttle body 1 into 2 reverse of an exhaust
collector.
but other than that it's a f--kin cool car and engine setup.should be heaps of fun.
have you got a part number that you can share for those rockers,i would love a set.
down sharon.

12 months later.... Not much has happened, have just pulled the top end down and cleaned up the cylinders, and coated the exhaust. Will have the car
back home next week and start the plumbing, then electrics. 4 months to get it done...
On the way back to the car...
