christmas coming early? part 5 - digging deeper to the core.

ok, so far things are looking better...JE pistons, pauter rods, Pauter or moldex crank, everything looks clean & very nicely glued with some kind of cement... and now the engine turns easily...so it would be best to put it back in one piece... ;-)

harley update @ fredrikinkatu

im too tired to tell anything else that it was a hot day, took the panel van to rest for a while...and the harley got me back from the cottage, after this we fixed mika´s schiebedach oval, and today we will go to the inspection. huh. good night.

porsche brembo/turbo brakes - part 3

i got my turbo brakes back from Kangasniemi. Mr. Laitinen made some custom brackets for 944 turbo brakes to 912 struts. they are the banana shaped ones. the ball joint housing needs a minor grinding, but not much, maybe 1-2 mm from one side. it starts to look pretty cool. i would have also the Big red ones, but i´ll keep em for the future... ;-) you never know what pops to my mind.

maybe they would be cool in the steyr...? i also have the 3.0 engine under dismantling.

the engine will have some parts to be changed...like the crank from a 70.4 mm to a 76.4 mm rods will be changed also...and the cylinders are going to be changed from the original 95 mm to "tyre smoking" 100 mm with some JE (high-CR) pistons ;-) so the brake update is more than welcome... these with some 50mm PMO´s, good cams, light flywheel etc... well you get the picture...
