Interested to see whether anyone has any experience with running a 0.06in head gasket. I was trying to achieve a high 10ish static CR but with a 363 combo am struggling with piston choices for this. With a 6.5cc flat top and 58cc heads, zero deck and a 0.041 felpro it gives me 11.1:1. Now I am...

That’s the rear sump model correct?

Bump on this ancient thread haha. What sumps are people using on their 40’s? Anything different out on the market that people prefer? Build is going to be an SGT.

Am waiting on some dyno graphs with the avenger heads on a 347 as am intrigued to see how they perform. I mean naturally the dart block would be a much better choice for every reason. The only issue is IVA time as would have to run cats etc :( Is going to be fuel injected but still a hassle id...

So it seems there is very little information out there about the Avenger heads, they seem to be chinese heads previously modelled on ProComps if the info ive found is correct? Has anyone ever used or seen anyone who has used them? I was looking at speccing up an engine myself but have seen one...

What happened to this engine? It sounds amazing haha. I want it. I’m guessing these are period correct 289’s that you have in both of them? Has been a while since I read your blog so can’t remember I’m afraid. Revs so fast!

well so far I did sweet FA haha Thanks to working in the aviation sector my salary was reduced by 85% so far this year. Rumours of being made redundant have resurfaced again so time shall tell. I could have bought the majority of the bits needed for the build from what I’ve lost this year but...

he came back to me with the below :) Chris, Either type of EFI is $5375. These are shipped ready to install with the injectors, sensors. fuel pressure regulator, and pressure gauge on the unit. Also included are the intake gaskets, intake bolts, a German synchrometer, and setup...

Was wondering whether this was a member on here? A friend saw it earlier. Was at a local tyre shop to my home in Bucks.

Looks amazing! Bet you’re stoked finally getting it on the road! Is that the SGT offered gulf arches and the 15x12 Image wheels with 295/50’s?

I was speaking to a tuner regarding using something like an Omex 710 and he said he would just tune it on TPS and crank sensor as if I went with Jenveys it’s unlikely they’ll have common plenums in the manifold etc. Naturally I understand that the vacuum signal is low at idle etc but wouldn’t...

That dash and interior is coming on amazingly! I’m assuming you’re well versed in a sewing machine to get a finish like that! What is the dash covered in? Alacantara?

Good friend of mine had his done by Garage Concepts last year. Very nice build. Hopefully we should be done with his McQueen inspired 912 in a few months. This is another friends garage where my GT40 shall reside during its build, alongside his rather nice Camaro full build. We don’t...

It’s flat ish - I can’t remember which way the slight slope is. Has been so long since I stored a car in there. Chocking and pushing had crossed my mind could be tricky though and sounds like far too much work ;)

Hi Andy, Do you have a picture of your door hinge? Am intrigued to see how it looks. Do you still do the removable door tops by the way?

Hatch isn’t possible unfortunately - is a brick garage attached to the house. The window is an option, it has crossed my mind but thought I’d see whether there were any better ones out there. Well I am actually storing it at the families house as I live abroad. The plan was to buy a property...

Right time for another obscure thread. My garage is tight shall we say (door is 210cm wide and widest point is probably only another 10cm each side. This basically means that I will categorically not be able to get in and out of the car whilst in the garage. I have seen removable door top...

It depends how much air is required to lift the suspension cups to how long it would last. But yes you’d think it would last a while. Trickier to refill for me though - being based at probably the most inland location in the UK haha, just checked the nearest is 30-40 minutes from me. Also...

I’m planning on having a fire extinguisher setup anyway but if I went down the tank route then it would be disguised as best as possible.

Thanks for that, gives a good insight into sizes of the kit etc. I think I could make that work without an issue. Haha the joys of taking on older projects eh! When you get the kit up and running if you could post a video it would be appreciated!
