Damn thats a lot of power for a ligh car. Stick some wings on it and you might be able to fly. Any thoughts about adding fatter tires to handle the massive power?

Yeah- I'm not exactly the nicest guy to work for- If you aren't 15 minutes early you are 5 minutes late!
But we get the job done! You don't want to be here when things go wrong, some days I just send everyone home, else I'm afraid I'll explode. |

Arrrrhhhh! Group: Members Posts: 4,327 Joined: 16-March 03 Member No.: 433 Region Association: None |
Cool! That car should fly! I think my 1850 lb 85hp 1.8 car is fast so I can only imagine what twice the hp would feel like!
Think I found my case core for a Raby 2270 kit today. Although I screwed up the oil drain area while transporting it home, bolt was loose and caught the edge of my trunk - material around the drain hole is bent now - hope a good machinist can take care of that? If its ok I will probably will send the case off to Jake later this year. |

And 200 Type Is that need a new home, they are taking up valuable space! I have outgrown 12,000 square feet of junk space!

You guys are both sick.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) Lets see . . . . . . Paul has a 1315 pound car. Jake has 375 engines. add 'em together - divided by two Paul ends up with a 914 that weighs 845 pounds and Jake gets 845 Type IV motors. Would that make everyone happy? |

Then buy all of my T4 stuff. Anyway. Paul, if you will get three fans from the 911 guys. You know the fans that were stock on the thermal reactor cars, that were used to cool them after shut down. Three of these will allow enough airflow for your situation. You could also just get some squirrel cage blowers to do teh same job. You really don't need a lot of cooling power. |

Brett, how much???
Wait till you guys see the way that we are *thinking* of powering the DTM's cooling fan on the production engines for max output.. We don't know if its legal or not, but it makes Bob Kirby's stovepipe through the car to supply air to the fan seem normal...... Chris is looking into it now- You'll think I'm crazy! |
