engines

I’m in the early planning stages of my gt40 build. I spoke with Fran over at RCR and he said they can fit a 427 side oiler in their kit. My question is to people who have done it was there a ton of problems in doing it? I have a 427SO block and a ZF-2 box for it but I’m wondering if it’s...

I’m just interested to know what (if any) different engines people have put in their cars. I guesss the Ford family must be in the vast majority of cars, but has anyone gone for a completely unusual choice? BMW, LEXUS etc? Just interested. Simon

My wife had a conference to attend in Chicago so we decided to pack up the kids and make a little detour to Dearborn. If you have never experienced the Henry Ford Museum it is well worth a visit. The artifacts run the gamut from steam engines to the chair president Lincoln was seated in when he...

The engines we install in our Superlight cars are more and more coming equipped with 48 volt electrical systems. When we install an engine with a 48 volt electrical system into our Superlight cars, what will we need to change? What changes will be beyond the owner/builders, and need to be from...

Hi All, Does anyone have experience of Devon Racing Engines and or Chris Smith engine builders? I think but am not sure he used to supply engines to MDA GT40 and Mark Sibley. Many thanks Tom

Hello folks, What in opinion is the best ecu for the LS series engines that will also maybe run the SBF engines as well? Is it better to take the car and have someone install the ecu for a cleaner look or it one of those installs with a little patience can be accomplished without many issues...

OK, sure, 2500 pounds is pretty light for a production street car, but it's pretty heavy for a race car. I'm wondering how light one could build an SL-C? Horse-power can't make up for weight. I think Colin Chapman had the right idea back in the 60's with the Lotus 23--1,000 pounds and 150...

Hello one and all! this is my first post and i did a search but didn't find anything from skimming posts, so my apologies if it is redundant. I am no where close to starting my SLC journey but I am in love with the car. 1) How durable is the vehicle inside and out especially with the exterior...
