project 1915cc stormer

 This might be the smallest vw engine in my place for the moment. 

we got the engine running, but the carb leaked some, so we have to get a new one.

and the engine tins also, and a better muffler too. 

i got the ghia also back to the garage.

Pick´n Up a Dodge

When i was a kid there was 2 guys with Dodge Town Panels, tearing up the pavement...adjusting the engines...and smoking the tires at helsinki city...i had a bicycle, they had their ex-police cars. that have been hounding me years. well i just got home from the pick up trip. what a great trip, to the Kotka City. Kotka means an Eagle. this Dodge has been converted to a pick up. has a V8, that should be a 5.59 liter engine...sounds like a 340 !!! it also has an open diff 8 3/4 so it has all the right stuff. frees the tires also. but the sound is soooo great. I absolutely love that pick up, its also painted, welded and has plenty of new stuff. and today, to get it to the trailer, we had to swap these ice track tires. and it looks bad asss.... ts time to clean up the yard also. to get rid of the vw racing parts and some vw-s too, but not all. gotta go back to the cottage to play with the P-U.  the dodge was happy to run and smoke tires, but the audi was not on my side.


1 crazy thing to tell about the trip is that my new audi, that i bought from a swedish car dealer, seems to have some minor problems, like when you have 2000 kilos of steel in a tow hook, occasionally you will not go faster than 60-90 kilometer per hour in a highway...damn those eGR and shit like that. Gotta get id of those. and more power and...

one mild 1915 cc coming through...

I have many parts in my storages, as you might have seen :-) so its time to get them in the use, and what would be great that i might be trying to drive one of my v-dubs again in the winter time... what it might be, that is not decided yet, :-) but it should be something else than a bone stock 1600 cc or a smaller. So this could be one ....a stock 69 crank, a engle w110 type cam, 94 cylinders, some better flowing heads, and some 40 dellortos, headers, 009, full flow, nothing fancy, or would this be a engine for the panel van for a change... 

untill the fuel injected 2332 cc stroker is ready :-)











Things are taking a lot more time than i would hope, 
as i have to visit meilahti hospital couple of time s a week for now...
