Default Evo engine - With inspection facility

Here is a new design of Evo engine. Allows you to keep an eye on the internal components.
































I think the balancer shaft decided that it wanted to be elsewhere. (not Gary's by the way!!).

Yes, I bet it did too. One things for sure, one of the engine components which left the engine bay punctured the fuel tank on its way under the car!!! However lucky was it that it didn't all catch fire?

It's an Evo 6 BTW and I reckon it will end up along the same lines as Gary's if I know the owner of it as I think I do!!
