Ian built his reputation with his own cars, he consistently put in the numbers with both his fiesta and focus and the fwd Ford tuning scene wouldn't be what it is today without him (hell, he invented the ZVH AFAIK)

Good mate!

I finally have some cleared funds! Dare I say May/June?

I think I am going to get Tommy Field to do the live mapp at the same time he does my corner weighting! On public roads I will leave the mapping to him as i do not want to be holding full throttle for long on a public highway! My onions just aint that big!

Jobs to do are as follows,

Fit some fittings to front brake lines and bleed
Exhaust downpipe, booked in at Haywood on the 28th of Feb
Boost pipes as they have been enlarged from the original Radtec ones
Wiring looms for pumps and some gauges
Corner weighting -1st week in April
MOT
Live Map
Smash gearbox
back to drawing board! LOL!

Its been KILLING me waiting for free cash but there is light at the end of the tunnel at last! It wont be top speed ready but at least I can have some fun/payback at long long last! The Performance Ford lads are very keen to get it done for the feature while its still in one piece and not smashed/fucked up with gravel rash and track abuse!LOL!

what happened with this engine

zetaboostboy522bhp

broke on the dyno mate , broke the corner of the block right off dont think the alloy block liked the heat etc as he wasnt running massive boost but it was making some serious bhp @10psi 440 if i remember right.
the only way round the shit block is to get a mazda drag racing block from america but at $6000 for a bare block ian called it a day . iam not being nosey but why you asking? are you thinking of doing something with one?
cheers paul

jacko

i am mate next years race season needs me in it lol and has ian still got any of it lying about

zetaboostboy522bhp

hi mate iam seeing him 2 moz so i will ask what hes got left over , i do know that hes still got the exhaust manifold but be warned it cost him about Ł2500 so i will see what he will sell it for, the bit you really want is the head he told me it cost about Ł4000 to develop and build , i will let you know 2 moz bud

Does any one know what this engine actually made? I assume unless i have missed something it didnt work or the power was so bad for the hyped spec it was never made public knowledge?
