Steve.

 

It will keep them all guessing lol

 

is that anuffa next to it dnt no wat it could go in .... some sort of kit car

 

mark, send it up my way, my sierra would fit round that nicely!!

steve

 

You olny just got the 24v working and what you going to do if ya drop a bolt in this one pmsl

Its a nice idea steve but after careful consideration sod off lol

 

would slot in the back here nicely next to the exploding doll

 

 

engine should be with me end of next weekish, came out of a smashed viper with 391 miles on the clock, yes just 391 miles.
engine, t56 gearbox ( the viper one is the strongest one on the market ) and all the loom/brain bits i need, with the exchange rate at the moment Ł5k and about Ł650 to ship it, and Ł1k duty/vat, so all in about Ł6650 and i have an engine with 500hp/525Ibft that is no more tuned than a 2.8i capri per cc, and has now lag, i can't wait to fit it and play.

another couple of shots of it.

 

Puch Maxi?

 

2CV?

 

you've got an engine

i'm going NOWHERE NEAR that car when it's ready

 

What ever its going to be dropped into is going to be fooking mental

Cant wait to see the outcome of this project

 

well it is going in a kit car, and the car should be on show at the stoneleigh kit car show (may 6th-7th) if anyones going, but only as a rolling chassis, it will be in the makers owners area, should be the one with a crowd round!!!!!

its not a cobra replica

 

deathtrap

 

Just had a phone call the engine has arrived bj928 sounded like a school boy with a new toy pmsl 24 hours to clear customs should have it in hand thursday will post pics as soon as we do

 

I still think it would be better fitted to my 4i Bro

When we changing my diff

Steve.

 

so you got hold of one then

should be very intersting what ever its going into

plus stoneleigh is down the road fromme so may have to pop over when the shows on and take a look

 

Cool man

Technically its not a Viper engine, its from an SRT-10 isn't it?

Cool look thing

 

A lorry engine

This post put some crazy ideas into my head. Whats the weight on that thing?

 

Nice! how much did that cost? (if you dont mind me asking). Would not like to pay the fuel bill

 

Read the post lol

Steve.

 

what's happening with the one thats sort of trying to get into the main shot then?
is that free to go to a good home then

 

opps missed that bit Bargain!!! theres two there, whats the other one going in too?

 

i think hes gona twin engine his project

 

 

Pop down we should be on the Luego club stand with it as long as the chassis is done it will be there i can confirm this later

 

Yeh it is the srt 10 engine but its still a viper they just sold the name or something stupid like that lol

The second engine just happened to be in the photo its for sale with the guys in the USA same as the one we got.

And no even im not mad enough to build a twin engine v10 but its a thought pmsl

 

Nice

 

at least the kit is almost all FORD, the gearbox is the same as the gt500 ford mustang, the diff is from a mustang IRS, the hubs and bits are granada cosworth, the stearing column is granada cosworth, steering rack is sierra cosworth, the only thing thats not ford is the engine, i'm sure back in the days of the original lotus 7's they were even powered by ford, oh have i just let the cat out of the bag as to what the engines going in!!!!!

 

You did say the engine was being fitted to a kit car near the top of this thread John

Steve.

 

i may have, but i didn't say what sort of kit car, i've now said lotus 7

 

a lotus 7?! fuck me thats gonna be potty!

 

You will know why if you meet John.

He needs that much power for a good power to weight ratio lol

Steve.

 

Nice project

Theres an E30 in Jaegermeister colours (Orange) going about with one of these in

Talking to the guy at Rallyday (Combe) two years ago... Said he hit 170 no trouble that morning on the way there, thought he ought to slow it down a bit before he got arrested, its pretty easy to spot a bright orange car doing 170!!!
