Same car,right?-6

Its an AZ car. I see him at a local car show now and then. Currently, it is still a 1.7.

[veekry9]

There are so many details that appeal.
When shaving the siglamps,most don't retain them.
Rolling the rockerpan looks right.
I even like the colour.

Here are a few more pics from the last time I saw it at a show...

Gulf 914

[veekry9]

Thnks MovQuik
I guess it is the gulf colours that suit the front fender treatment.
The top chop is well done,the cage is closely fitted.
yup,does it for me,very nice rendition.

Get 2 engines,cut and rejoin to build a bigger better engine of your dreams.
What could you do with a 9L 90* Ford V-12?
What could you do with a 4-5L 32 valve flat-8?

Found a link to an old thd here:

2006-2012 jump,a brief interlude.
so yeah,a lot of discussion of the same idea.
also found the address of Mr Lind of Sweden.

Not only can it be done ,it Should be done.
A 914-8.aircooled..must have.

[Sleepin]

If it wasn't such a boat anchor, the air cooled Tatra 8 would be cool

In Europe,the Tatra aircooled V8 has been used for many unique projects.

Q
However, Tatra came up with some very special concepts and innovations under the hood as well. Which technical details were most significant?
Ivan Margolius: The lightweight air-cooled rear engines V8 and flat 4, swiveling headlights, swing axles, forced fan-assisted cooling and flat undersides.
Q

Haven't looked into the aftermarket for these engines,if it exists.

yup,modern

Some time later,more info became available.


SuperBug-2.5L V8 (Bore:75mm X Stroke:72mm)


Incredibly,snuggled into the behind.
So yeah,with some careful measurement and mods,one could slip right in to your 914,smoothly.

A great idea,now,where is that flat -8,pushrod even.
To accommodate said long-block,a wb stretch would make a perfect fit.

Huge history! I remember seeing Dubcek and Svoboda cruising around Praha and Bratislava in 603! And then in the 70's them orders 613 model. Only the party big wigs got to be driven in those cars. Ahhh, great memories of the utopian socialism of CSSR and CCCP! And the pivo! Don't forget the pivo! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

Come to think of it,those highpressure dies quite likely still exist.
The entire GM Corvair production diesets were scrapped in the 70's.
But things are done differently there,as the dies are of great value,even now.



Do you see anything you like?An alloy aircooled v8 of aircraft design philosophy.
Lightweight,compact,easily manufactured,similar in design to the vw and corvair.
hemi design canted valve in pushrod and dohc configuration,sophisticated.



this is the H-4,chain driven sohc,1937.



pushrod -4

By raising the camshaft far above the crank in the valley,the rocker geometry for the exhaust valve is improved,perhaps making possible the use of common rockers throughout.
Note the hemi-like chamber and wide angle canted valves.Like the VW/Porsche and Corvair,the bore diameter is restricted by the cylinder head studs.
A considerable amount of weight savings would be realized by adopting LN cylinders.
I believe the crank is a conventional cross plane and at a small 72mm stroke,there may be plenty of room for a much larger stroker.

The discrete lifter-blocks allow replacement roller-lifter and barrels to be installed for low friction,high rpm operation.

Looks like an interesting project,a diesel conversion.

Tatra 613 unfinished project - Diesel. Unique project of rebuilding the engine T613 (aggregate) on diesel variant. At the end of the 70th century originated minuléto years so far unique project for rebuilding the engine on the T613 diesel engine with direct fuel injection into the cylinder. As a base engine was used T613 (model E) production year 1977, which had traveled 20 thousand. km. The creation of new pistons with a semicircular shape of the bottom of the piston has been redesigned combustion chamber cylinder heads were modified cabinets cam engine was devised to drive fuel injectors, all this was preceded by a complex formulation of models later casts, followed by manufacture themselves cast as pistons and various components, from which the formed parts for driving the injection pumps, produced with a special injector, it was necessary to devise and make special threaded shaft for installation into enclosures injectors cams and cylinder heads. further information only serious and technically savvy candidates. This project is a testament to immense creativity and skill of the Moravian-wise and because the owner of this concept does not want to make this engine ended up in scrap, looking for this very technical and design an efficient, technologically savvy real enthusiasts Tatrovaks heart for engines Tatra, which this project dotáhnul to successful end. The owner of both the engine and the entire project, originator of the idea itself is ready to provide serious, but it really only serious candidates all technical and knowledge support to complete this project successfully. The owner, however, asks dealers and speculators, who, on this project, they just want to earn without it without touching anything, so this video in any way responded.

P.S. The video is mistakenly stated that the year of manufacture of the engine is 1997 correctly's 1,977th

What's not to like?An alloy hemi V8.
And it's "Teutonic".
