If anyone knows of anyone selling an r302 8.2” block if you could direct me to them please it would be appreciated! Many thanks

It’s a tricky one but I’d say both parties may have a hand in this. As mentioned above that dyno graph has questionable readings which need to be clarified. If it was just their dyno carb etc then they wouldn’t have tuned it they’d have just given it a break/bed in and run it up to make sure no...

So I had heard correctly then! Wish you a happy retirement and hopefully ill get my order in v shortly. You will be missed no end! Hope you enjoy your well earned chill time!

That is BEAUTIFUL. Is it a matte Sauterne Gold? The end is in site, can’t wait to hear it fire up. That’s the colour combo I was looking at doing although gloss. Damn you :D

Looks like it sold on Ebay for £950

Also may be good to specify the current bore etc

Loving the project. Nice garage of toys too! Came from GTR’s myself, nice to see others don’t have to choose sides between import and V8 :D These are my last two:

I will say don’t expect a GT40 to drive like an ultima. That will put the power down the GT40 won’t. You going to be building the chassis yourself? You’ll want to be running new age suspension geo and tech not your variations of originals that most do. It’ll be some car that’s for sure! I know...

Anyone on here living in Istanbul? The wife saw a GT40 in my suburb of Göktürk so thought I’d see if the owner was on here! Would be very interested in seeing the car etc Hopefully someone knows them!

Knew I recognised the name! Welcome, have been loving your FD for a while now. Nearly bought myself an old JGTC style Time Attack RX a few years ago. Cant help much with SLC’s personally but good luck with the project and look forward to seeing its progress. Theres a gaggle of smart buggers...

Don’t think I’ve ever seen or really heard of a Pontiac 400 let alone in a GT40, so no idea on the size comparison to something like a 351w. Nor any idea about the engines characteristics. what is your reasoning behind the engine choice out of interest? A MKII body style has more vertical...

I don’t have it. Strange On new threads it’s there. o_O

Spoke with the guy via email. He has 4 boxes, look to be 944/968 Porsche boxes. 1 5 speed and 3 6 speeds. Share a lot of parts with the Audi gearboxes. None have been stored too well. Tried to put pics but will only let me use web hosted pics? since when was that the case?

Looks to be an audi gearbox also not a Porsche one.

Is a valid point but I know they have different types of valves for refilling. One for ‘race’ that refills quickly when pressure above 35psi and another that refills slower.

he’s had the blocks sat around for a while indeed and you’re not far off with the name! he doesn’t advertise what he has so just sells it when people ask!

i have to admit it’s not even on my radar due to price but I’ll have to have a read anyway as that sounds interesting! The buffer quip made me chuckle I have to admit. I severely doubt I’ll be pulling enough G to warrant a dry sump it just came down to being an option related to block choice...

Ah you swine, did you get the billet sump direct pump Dailey setup? if so that is simply beautiful but way out of my price range even used! Do you know if the inverted 930 box sits higher than ZF?

I know its been posted on here and i have read the other threads etc however i had some more questions and thought easier to start a fresh one vs reopening an old one. So my current dilemma: I have a couple of options for blocks to base my build on (11:1 9.2 deck SVO block, basically a nascar...

Damn you using the Dailey billet dry sump where the pump is mounted to the pan?! #utterporn
