I've used an eta block (which is identical to 2.5 block) eta crank 325 pistons 1mm machined off the block to bring the pistons to the top, eta rods, 325 head, polished and ported, shrick 288 cam (wild) 6 branch fannymold and I've just ordered an E30 Zone 2.7 chip, the result, I'm clueless, it's still on my engine stand in the garage, fitting it next Tuesday!
This is my second go at this engine, the first one cracked the head shortly after running in! I've been researching this engine for about 4 years now so I hope i've cracked it this time.
If anyone wants to contact me i'll be only too happy to share my knolage, you can get me after work on 07774 000577
P.S. How do ya put a picture on hear![/img]
