craked Posted February 21, 2009 Author Share Posted February 21, 2009 ok guys i may have a pit lane garage for sale after not having a enough time to build my engine cause i was going on holidays i paid one of the local engine buildier to do it for me. So we got the engine put it in the car wired it up made all new pipes put it on the dyno and every thing was looking great.The car made 600hp on just 20psi not bad i though.So lets go do some kms before we give it a full tune up but very sad to say the engine didnt even last 200km before spining a bearing. So the holidays got cancelled and we stripped the engine down and could not belevie what we found standard size rings on 20 thou over size piston 1.5 thou piston to bore clearance the crank was now bent 25thou. so i went back to the builder to tell him and all he has to says is get an engineneer to show me where i went wrong and then i will pay for it but by the time i do that i could have the engine back together and maybe get to power cruise. So if some body wants it pm me and i will let you know on thursday if i will make it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/247414-powercruise-17/page/4/#findComment-4438193 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYTSKY Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Friggn awesome weekend for me!! Car never missed a beat, apart from a few cooler pipe blow outs. There is nothing better than smoking the treads in 3rd gear, powerskidding and drifting all over the circuit!!! Big thanks to Jarrod at A&B Motorsport for lending me some tools and letting me stash my fuel and tyres on Friday, much appreciated!

2rismo Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Sitting in garage 24 and eating my first real food that isn't sausage/bacon in days. Relaxing with guilttoy, benm and the boys, waiting for the racing to start. Massive thank you to dave and his tool wench for their assistance in removing the gear box, helping to rebuild it and putting it back in. Totally unexpected and appreciated.
