well nothing really going on with my car. nothing to do on it, nothing to fix so its just sitting rotting away for the time being. needs new front tyres so cant drive it at the moment.
adam who has the sierra has decided to change his engine.
thats adam
not entirely sure why but he is going to be building up an x20xev into a turbo engine. so thats the block and head.
then took valves out the head so it can be cleaned up then ported etc
then chopped the inlet manifold roughly for now
so it will end up with some of them on it. he is planning a gt30 turbo instead of the t304 he had on the 1800 k series engine. that engine will be getting rebuilt low comp style also then put into a p100 pick up he has.
crazy youth. will get more pics as more stuff happens.
thanks.

yeah he is very clever for a youth. making his own turbo manifold aswell from scratch he says once he has bought a tig welder anyway. he wants to aim for about 400-450bhp. hopefully have a fwe more bits done engine wise in the next few weeks.

yeah for such an odd looking youth, he knows his stuff. isnt even remotely annoying as most people are when theyre 16-17.
