kiwipete Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 That's just spooky My conrods just arrived today from Scott Now I'll drop them and my pistons off to the engine builders to get balanced...I think I'm getting a bit carried away with this build I want it to last though This is looking to be one mean engine build here, be good to see how it preforms. Are you having to make any modifications to the drive train due to the extra horses driving it? What other engine bay modifications do you think you will need to do?

Stock drive train SHOULD be strong enough, Wont be too many Ponys or torques The VG33 block is mostly Identical, so everything bolts on to the bare block. Only mod I'm doing is building an air box and snorkel(Not really necessary) Worst thing is this project has been put on hold till I finish the 93 and get some more money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwipete Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Well, hopefully it won't be too long before we see it running. I will keep an eye out for progress as I ponder what to do with my engine if it gets worse. I am contemplating on an intercooler for it and a big bore exhaust to increase the power a tad.
