Getting close, so close!
I must have missed this but does the turbo just run off the rear bank?

WOW SUPER MEGA AWESOME
That is the business, man.
My last 2nd last racecar was an openwheeler with a turbo 3.5 Magna 5 spd fitted at the rear, and was disgustingly quick. Only 200 rwhp for 880kg, but made far to many very expensive V8s look very silly. All that weight on the drive tyres.......

I figure if this thing falls on me and i live the nopics will let me get a hoistOriginally posted by Justengt4 View PostI know you're gonna die fairly soon after this thing is running but let's not do it sooner eh and use some axles stands next time
I probably should use stands but I dont get under it while its balanced precariously on the jack. Everything is disconnected before hand with the sub frame sitting on rollers. Once its up i give the engine a kick and it rolls out the side.Comment

As everyone is saying, super impressive work, I like the way its coming together! Wish I had your fabrications skills, is it something you do for a living or just a hobby?Comment

Its just a hobby but im a mechanical engineer so i like to think that helps a bit. Really i think its more patience and perserverence than any particular skill. I like to give new things a go and learn new skills even if it takes a few goes to get it right. It takes a long time to get stuff done and i still think ive got a long way to go but the end result can be pretty good.Comment
