Awesomeness when it eventually starts

Knightcharger wrote:How much time, effort and money did that 1 sec cost you Dave?

In finance terms not a lot more but the car was always more money than I could afford anyway. It was the amount of grief, lost time and even heartache that spoiled it. In the end it wasn't worth the hassle.

Jimmy lost that car to a fire, he re bodied, chassised & new motor.

Only for it to be damaged in another fire, not as bad thank goodness.

He's now gone twin turbo.

if you were racing yes..... but yer not

why spend 200+ quid when you can have a reliable igntion from our firends at GM using your orginal Dizzy and any modern frame coil off a mid 80s "classic"

£20 for the module

get rid of the ballast



bobs yer uncle

if it can set off LPG in engines with 13.5:1 CR then it can work perfectly adequatly in a low boost blower/turbo set up

i'd invest the money in MLS gaskets or copper....ferriday egineering do copper from you old gasket as a template

Dave

if you want to run more boost and can't be arsed with turbo kitting a carb and all that fannying about

LPG it

2X impco 425
bolt em to holley base plates
these are gas carbs not amos rings designed for pure LPG systems no dual fuel


boost reference the regulators
pipe from plenum to inlet ref port on reg

stick with propane...

aussies do it a lot
for a budget turbo set up can't be beaten no messin with intercoolers cos the gas is mighty cold

rest of the world doesn't seem to have thier enthusiasm

pick up tanks and stuff ex taxi/PTE bus/forklift
look to aussie and canadian Ebay for the Impco or OHG gas carbs

OHG (Over the Hill Gang) are the best performance gas carbs but have not been made for a long time

Dave

Thanks Dave

Now that is a bit of kit

The best 13min of my day that was thank you very much

Now that is lovely, the jump in horsepower and torque from comparatively low revs is instantaneous and the engineering is beautiful!

I looked at his symmetrical turbos & billet block when I went to see NRE, although it wasn't a Hemi block at that time.

I wouldn't see you getting much change from $100k for that placid monster

So should have listen to all your advice but cant be told so

210 miles

burnt out clutch (sorry boss )(free fuel)

Does the cover plate look a bit like an octagon shape or should i say a 60 has this type of cover plate ?

I'm no expert, I seem remember from when I was looking at them, no doubt some one will be along to confirm or put me right

60's, 70's and 80's all have a similar cover but you can identify em fairly easy.
Some have the series code cast into the bottom right of the centre section but you'll probably have to go on the web to get a chart which clearly shows the differences., there's loads of info on there.
It's probably an unequal length axle so the shafts will be too and they are probably 8 stud commercial hubs too.
Unfortunately it's unlikely to have a locker in it either, sorry

3 or 4" tubes? Some of those brackets will need to come off..
