Hi

 

Great build.

 

"406 pistons. buff." What are the pistons? Std 406 ones or Omega forged o es. Do they fit the std rods and where are they sold?

 

Thanks:-)

Hi Martin, cheers mate.

 

Theyre 406 supertouring pistons from the VLR cars. 19.98mm pin side, high pin height, so no, they req custom rods. Omega pistons.

from the EW motor or did they have XU's still?

 

nice long rods, lower piston side thrust loads, lighter pistons

smaller rod angle.

 

XU. VLR stuff, I think they put cocaine in their cylinders instead of pistons on most of the engines though. haha.

 

I shan't be using these pistons though, going down a different route I think. So they are for sale, just in no rush! lol.

Saw this at Dunton VED! Looks like a great build.

Cheers mate Free burger... thought I may as well bring it haha.

I am thinking about breaking this... (it's an option). Everything except Throttles, ECU, Seats and Harnesses.

 

Would need interest in the shell with cage before anything else. Its a non sunroof good shell with seat mounts and all cage plates welded in to MSA regulations. All ready for building into a sprint / hillclimb / gymk car. So I will not reply to offers of a few hundred quid...

 

Cheers,

Alex

[welshpug 1,622]

why?

[alexcrosse 124]

Thinking about something different.

[Anthony 1,000]

Shame, as I've quite enjoyed reading about this cars build from start to finish.

 

Did you end up doing any events or anything in it?

[alexcrosse 124]

nothing serious, depends how stuff works out over the winter, if it doesn't go I'll do an aemc season.

[alexcrosse 124]

Ok definitely breaking this. Shell has to go first.
