First pictures of new engine/turbo .
The engine is almost complete & today Mark was sorting out details to allow swift change over of 2 turbos , 2 manifolds, 2 inlets & 4/8 injectors.
The Dyno is now booked for 2 maybe 3 days so we can really find out what works best with what.

Some of the testing will be keeped secret and we will prob only let out the max figures as the testing of all these parts is costly and I belive I should be the only one to benafit from it .

is there a reason for choosing the 2wd head mark? i was under the impression it was prone to cracking because of the chamber design? not a dig or anything, just curious as i was going to sell my 2wd head for a 4x4, but if it's okay for big power, i may aswell keep it!

Don't suppose this car does 200mph does it ?
Obviously won't hear the figures which is fair enough but you are certainly going to town on what works best.
Fair play and good luck

My contact at Cosworth says they are looking to make new blocks/head but the time scale is unsure but I would guess over a year.

Wow - looking good.
Had a quick chat with Mark the morning before Time Attack Silverstone and he said things were moving on with yours
Which turbo is that in the pics? GT4088? GT4094? GT42R variant?
Looking forward to the dyno figures all the same - best of luck

One day we may see yours run at full power but I do belive its been 9 months running on and off seems to me you are scared to run it at full power, Do you think the head will come off
