Latemodel nose and longer dam/grill,targa bar lengthened and dropped at rear,the A pillar is unchanged. Some side gills to doll it up and act as vents.The targa curve has been sloped and extended. The engine bay is 7"/180mm longer for the massive engine/tx package,the purpose of the gimpix. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Yeah I drew it first,then I made them.Simple. When I was younger,working the clay. A repertoire of excellence. An abundance of these are available in South America,go get some. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

"the Red Fox has a long nose" The snout is no longer than the factory baby bumpers. An aero tray to direct high pressure to the rear,avoiding the (pressure) differential below the racer. I noted this day that the builder has installed bench upholstery,likely to gain more headroom with the helmet.I might like the same treatment to shed some kilos. A righthooker for the Cooper nose job,in extreme proportion. In blue,a simply formed variation to punch the air,reducing the apparent flat plate area. Make faster with the same power.

A chalkboard was used to express the idea. (edit:01/21/16) As per drawing,5L-V12 Longitudinal. The actual Countach we drooled on at the show in TO,I recalled the fitment of the frunk,so I 'repaired' it in Gimp.I even like the color,new in 69. A longitudinal mid.

A forlorn 924/944 resurrected as a mid,a difficult transition. Looks neat tho. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Checking the ads for a cheep 944,engineless.

Ya,I put it there to be visible at the viewpoint of the drawing,so the fan was visible,the injector covers are merely decorative. While I was working on an 8,a 12 came up.An x configuration,solves a couple of problems and creates others.Seems workable tho. (720/6)/2=60*.An unusual layout made more viable by the 15* VR6.(Quote:You can't do ....). No overnight sensation,this is a long term project with plenty of challenges.Like how do you incorporate a vvt layout with only 4 cams? / (edit:05/26/16) New metallurgy allows significant weight loss,thermal conductivity improved. A set of cylinders of minimum mass. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) / |

Pretty Pix of the computer model of the X12. Used sbc dimensions for the rods,etc.This is a huge displacement,4.25 bore x 3 stroke. 4.06" Bore X 2.5" Stroke=427"/7L What it will sound like.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) http://audacityteam.org/download/ 935_12_05.mp3 ( 1.14mb ) Number of downloads: 171 A nice tone for a phone or alarm,wake to the sounds of a 935-12. the original file: 935.MP3 ( 1.14mb ) Number of downloads: 124 |

Sure,this is at the root of the Martian9 body.
One of the drawbacks is the aero drag,can't install the heavy door bars and have windows that move. Certainly a much simpler approach,one that has worked well in the past and looks acceptable now. My endeavor is the smooth-sided with the massive scoops and intercoolers,maintaining the cg of a mid. The effect of the weight of the rads up front can be tested by simply filling a pail of water and swinging it about at 140mph. The other purpose of the large (TR)side scoops is to fill the rear of the targa,reducing induced drag,with the fan. The major surgery and workload doesn't put me off at all,as some of my work related jobs took 8+ months to complete(turbines). The doorskins are fair game for my plans,and may be subject to a material change,to make more light.Patient,critical design. The only criticism I have is the spoiler,which,of course,is not effective at all,reminiscent of ricer additions to compact sedans. A more radical change to the concept of adding great power,calls for a serious rollcage and the addition of lightweight components. A watercooled engine requires I include radiators,intercoolers,hoses,pumps and fans.By confining the added mass to the central regions of the wheelbase,the cg can be maintained,instead of the 'dumbell' additions at each end,with their larger moments of inertia. https://www.google.ca/search?q=moment+of+in...2rbQgLfgnaAM%3A / |

Add some reflections Appears to be a pair of 60* V6's sharing a common 6 pin crank. More accurately, a pair of sixes 60* apart,meeting an even fire order. Right side view,a simple shoebox head,4valve. Angular view,with case ribs and studs,head studs,Mbearing webs Some top views,showing the offsets of each bank,shorter than the v or flat arrangments. The short stroke and large Mbearing dia allows an ample pin overlap. |

At first I didn't know what to think of that body mod, but the more I saw of it over at Genes the more I liked it and if the money was here at the time it might have been mine! We researched the kit and never really found out whether it's a one-off or a kit you can still buy but with a little work it will look sharp! The lines are definitely there and it even suggests lines of the Carrera GT to a degree- have you done any research on it to find out where the parts came from? |
