well, that was a bit of a shit start to the day - stuck in a lift for over an hour.

On the upside, was stuck in there with an ex Sarich engineer, and am now fully up to spec on the history of the Orbital Engine Co., and what a fkn story!!

So you know why they got shutdown then?

apparently when they changed out to the injection system for 2 strokes (from the orbital engine program) they ran in to massive issues of deposits on the injectors, caused mostly by fuel and oil purity issues, and Ford Cologne (who had been backing them until that point) pulled the plug. The company tried to go out on its own, and even produced 85 ford festivas with the system fitted, which they basically gave away on the agreement they got them back to assess after a given time, but due to the completely nonexistent support for the company, the ideas or even the chance for a full manufacturing setup here in Perth

(Tickford actually DID build a production line in Balcatta that built the first 85 cars)

It died a sad death, killed off by apathy, lack of foresight and a shit government that missed a golden opportunity to put Australia at the forefront of automotive engineering for decades to come. And if anyone thinks it was a unacheivable pipe dream, just remember that this country is full of people who have massively changed the automotive game. Blokes like Rod Hatfield, and Jim Read to name a few.

 

And now I am depressed and angry at mah counrty :(

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something?
