Enigne bay and turbos are getting done after summer. But for now im just putting it all together to drive for summer. I just need the motor back in to finish it off and the coller, B&M Pro rachet and a spool.

It will look nice once it's back together because exuast manifolds have been hpc'd and cooler pipeing is all chrome. In just painting the valley and polishing rocker cover's and engine covers, Brand new water bottles. Any one know where i can get cheap polishing done??????

That pretty good my engine builder and tuner seem to think mine will p*ss 350rwk only on 6psi so if it dose that i will be f**ken wrapped. Should have some power figures in the next couple of week's, i will go down and get some pics of the motor on the engine stand it looks a treat Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

NZ EVLHAV Engine is back in and i just finished running it in. Since i put the thread up i have now fitted a bosch 044 fuel pump, catch can, Garret race core coller, ICE Coil, 650 rochecter injector's which where to small wouldnt even handle 6psi, Fully rebuilt T400 full maulised and my B&M Quick silver shifter. All is left now is injectors and diff to be done. ill post some quick pics up when the weather is better and when the injectors and diff are done so i can take it out for a wash.

Those bosch 044's are only good for about 500rwhp and even getting close to that figure I'd run twin pumps and twin fuel lines or a big single.

350rwkw on 6psi? Im pretty sure your engine builder is dreaming. Maybe on 15-20psi, especially with low compression. Not knocking it, its exactly what i want to do! TUFF. Get some vids up.

S&S Im going to run twin 044's when i crank the boost up, Main goal atm is to get it running. TW089 Your right, maybe miss understood what he said. But he was talking those power figures. But i supose only time will tell. ------------------- Thanks for the comment's boy's, really appreciated. This thing when it was a standard 5L on 6psi with blue top injectors, 500hp bosch fuel pump and that was it, it made 242rwk on RAJAB's dyno. I think that was the exact figure, but i know it was in the 240's anyways.
