What boost can a 200 block cossie take?

Does anyone use the liners Nikasi?? than Julian Godfrey uses on his rallycross engines?

does this mean i could take a worn 200 block add a set of liners and now it basically bullet proof??

how much am i looking at for a crank regrind ? and who?

can you use standard cossy rods for 500bhp?


Cheers

well thats why i cant find the liners im spelling it wrong.....

36 psi....i like the sound of that!...

jacko

it was 200 block low comp pistons grays and cometic gascets and up untill i wrote it off it was a missile with 36 psi mi mate was along side me in 5th and mine was spining the wheels at 100mph granted it was wet but it still impressed me and him

Standard rods will take well over 500bhp I remember Kev Sharp saying his old rods were rated to 680bhp. The crank can take around 700 but you want to change them before these levels for reliability. Oh and its spelt Nikasil I think.

Hope this helps.

James-W

Oh and I think the Carwise saph ran 3.2 bar without nikasil liners.

bang rite mate and standard rods with arp conrod bolts

Boost pressure is irrelivant really.

Its in-cyl pressure that counts, and 100psi boost on an engine with the compression low enough can easily have lower in-cyl pressures than a really high comp one running 10psi for example.

James-W

No it was running H-section billet ones and a knife edged crank.

jacko

it wasnt mate nial is a mate of mine and told me all about it and im sure he said thay where standard cause i was after building a big power motor and he told me not to bother with an uprated crank or rods as the uprated rods are just lighter not much stronger
i could be wrong but im sure thats what he said

neal1980

3.2 bar, thats awesome, i think i remember this car was it a magenta saff???

jacko

yes mate with black tsw wheels its going to have even more power for next year striped out with a cage and a floked dash

James-W

Neil a fuckin loony. Just looked on his website and its just lightened and balanced with stupidly low cosworth racing pistons.

Im interested with these KKK turbos what he used on his car one of his customers car.

jacko

the kkk turbos are from porsche race cars and are quite good

James-W

Yeah dude I heard once I was going to buy a KKK F1 turbo and put it on a cossie.
Just wanted to know where he gets them from really.

jacko

not a clue mate but i dont think thay are that expensive
