2.7 Build**NEW DYNO ADDED**

[liam012]

700 miles up today
should hit 1000 soon then its in with the megasquirt.
i must say i'd love to see the power from yours as its meant to yield about 20-25hp more than the BK route and am so happy with how mine has urned out power wise - she's hitting 60 in second with the long diff and in no time at all - an absolute pleasure to drive, hope you enjoy yours as much - by the looks of the spec i am most certain you will!

[Nelly]

Looking good there Oz - bet you can't wait to get your little mitts on it lol

I wont be able to do any short journies unfortunatly, so no passenger rides at meets till its run in, Doctor Ants orders

[Nelly]

Cool - i'll have to wait until shes ready, just going to get the phone from the bedroom!!!! try it again mate

[toby]

Can't wait to see this beast again

Saw Oz's car yesterday. Looks awesome on the road being driven with it's black Azev'z. Goes rounds bend quite fast aswell even with it's ride height which I have to admit looks quite good.

I was driving behind and the noise this car makes is really really nice. Engine feels super responsive too (only revved it gently while standing).

Ant has done a very nice job on this, looking forward to what Oz thinks once it's run in.

Andy P you have been building that engine for hmmmm 3 years?!

andys just another "2.7 dreamer"

was in the garage painting and cleaning it all up till 1.30am just need to put it all back together now.

[exup]

Re the TOTAL SEAL RINGS , , i think there bril
i used set many years ago on a x flow set up for NOS , after build a compression test was 190 psi , after approx 1000 miles went up to 230 psi , after approx 5k miles it was steady at 260 psi , bril , on m3d
but ihad a problem the starter motor was ok cold but heat soak when fully run it and the starter could nt turn it
i had to machine the ring lands slightlt wider to fit them , do the do a set that fitts a std pistion ring width or is it still machine them ANT ?, ctm ilford still supply them ?
looking good Ant

to add to the hundreds of others. who apart from templ8 and oz(ant) has done the 2.7 conversion?

Guess im in that category too allthough i now have all the bottom end apart so will be up dicks this week for all the necessary components to dummy build that bottom end and take some measurements

[oguz327]

She's done 381 miles now, man this thing moves
only trouble is i can go over 4000rpm but up till then it feels really strong then it feel as if it really want to take off but i have to change gear.

Feels as if its getting quicker as the miles rack up, plenty of driving this week me thinks

[dark_sounds]

shotgun passenger ride!!

[mattG]

so all done

how many days left to give it a real spanking

[oguz327]

No worries Ali

Got to get about 2k on there Matt, shouldn't take long, plenty of meets this month then once i get over 2k ill probably track get her loosened up nicely

[mattG]

you could be the zone courier for a week

[oguz327]

you could be the zone courier for a week

Haha, that would do it!

Any progress with the touring dude?

[mattG]

Wicked mate, look forward to seeing this at the next Guildford meet all being well

[Demlotcrew]

Well how is she to drive?

Andrew

[oguz327]

Well how is she to drive?

Andrew

She drives lovely dude, loads more torque low down which is what i wanted and very grunty but the top end is still unknown as i cant go over 4000 rpm just yet.
I took Simon out for a spin yesterday and he seemed impressed.

It should be a beast once run in, gear change is sweet now too as we changed the offending worn items and Ant fitted a new clutch.

Next up will be getting the wing and front spoiler sorted, welding and 60mm drop and its pretty much job done.

Big thanks to Ant for all his hard work and dropping her up to me on saturday, nice one dude

[Theo]

Sounds good Oz, will be interesting to see what it does between 4-6.5k though!!

[oguz327]

First oil change at 490 miles today!

562 miles done altogether:D

[Demlotcrew]

I would have stretched the first oil change!

Andrew

[Davenotouring]

Ho well, it's done now. I'm sure it'll be fine!

[oguz327]

I would have stretched the first oil change!

Andrew

Ant specified oil change at 500, he built the engine so who am i to argue

[Ant]

First oil change at 490 miles today!

562 miles done altogether

time to stretch the rpms a little then M8

4K becomes 4.5K then @ 1000miles you can start to explore higher

no sustained high load/rpm til 2K though OK

[oguz327]

Wicked dude, exploring should begin sunday

[Davenotouring]

Anyone know of any young ladies I can explore?

Oz, the fun starts on Sunday!

[Simon13]

answer you f**king phone Oz

come round and we can adjust the ride height i'm rained off today and i'm going to have to work saturday till 1-2pm to make up the money!

Easy mush, wondered who that was!

[oguz327]

Milage 920 and got the nod tonight from Ant to hoon the arse out of it!
What can i say, this thing is fooking SAVAGE, it really comes alive after 4000rpm and hits the redline in no time time.

Its as quick as id wanted and then some, plus it rev as well as my old high comp lump if not better, very very pleased with the performace.


I cant recomend Ant from A techs services enough.

Maximum respect to you Ant, i am a happy man!

[Ant]

What has Mr 13 to say on the subjesct, or is he too dude

did she sound sweet as I left or what

[oguz327]

Yes mate, sounds sweet as a nut

I think Mr 13 was very very impressed too, he couldnt fault it!

We got back super quick too, after dropping off the 13 i was hoping to find some prey but nothing about unfortunately

[Ant]

sweet

put the old springs back though dude, pleeeeeeeaase
