I did think that about the foam yes, Im going to run a fan on the front of the rad as the old ones knackered anyway and relocate the filter higher up. How would weld splatter make its way back through the charger?

What are the differences between the 2 engines?

So after the latest lockdown announcement and the booked trackdays being cancelled I've decided just to do the engine build properly, now there's no rush. Rather than rebuild my engine and having bits everywhere I've managed to find a cheap used engine then just swap and sell mine. Stil...

Fully agree to all of the above, was going to whip the head/sump/big end and main caps off and have a measure up and if it was all in good shape. If good just fit some pistons/rods with new shells so the car wasn't either stranded on a ramp for a week or having to get it rolling again to move it.

I've already got a 105mm pulley yes but unsure wether to use it yet or swap the size of the crank pulley I need to speak to a few people before a spec is decided

I have yes Il ask him about that thanks!

You'd think so but it's perfect and absolutely no signs of anything in the filter + its out of the way

I've been running the supercharger for a while now I bought it off a guy from facebook. and yes the rods are all the same. Funnily enough Ive just had to send the charger off for repair due to a noise on start up. Found damage on the impeller but have no idea of the cause yet . . .

sorry which bracketry?!

Absolutely loving this build! Have you decided on a CR and pulley size?

Merry Christmas everyone!

I swore when I was happy with the cars handling and performance it would just get used until it breaks! BUT after Oulton in the wet it has so much more to give and I figure if the engines going to come apart it may as well be before summer! Were booked on at Oulton on the 19th Jan then that's it...

Thanks for that will definitely try that next time!

Genuine Renault oil the Redline is just an additive

It's on the list of jobs to do tbh but no I've had no leaks and spoken to the chap from Uk Supercharger repairs and he said it would be ok . . . BUT when I get a spare few hours Il stil whip the bumper off and make some brackets I think

So just got back from a very wet but absolutely amazing day at Oulton Park. First outing since its been in bits and I'm chuffed to bits. So happy and not an issue all day (bar a few pilot errors)! The diff and supercharger has just totally transformed the car more than I ever expected...

After a few winter track days looming and only a few sets of worn semi slicks we decided to get some proper wet's to try, managed to source a set of decent used wets and slicks each for me and a mate from a Polish chap for a great price! And arrived just in time . . .

Few random bits to add, firstly after chatting to a customer that hill climbs/sprints and uses Gripper diffs he advised I add a bottle of Redline friction modifier (alot of them use it apparently)! so went with his word and pulled some oil out and re filled through the breather. First time out...

Yes awesome! Will look out for you, come and say hello if you see me :-)

Thanks buddy! Because they just move around and generally leak before they've been boosted so just welded the original hole up and used these fittings. Not a chance of any boost leaks that way. I'm using the red spring.
