It's evolved quite a bit, if all goes according to plan it will most probably run for the first time next month. I have added loads of photos on facebook, add me. Louis Cloete.

So basically we changed from the original 72 body shell to a cleaner 69 shell during the build. The entire shell was paint stripped to bare metal and then primed.
The engine has been re worked with new Wiseco 4.060" pistons and a new engine casing to accommodate the Porsche cooling. We also opted for thicker barrels, The twin turbo setup was removed and was changed for a single Garrett GT3582R.
The intake system was reworked and individual throttle bodies installed.

Yes they are Deutz thick wall cylinders with 4,060" bore (103mm). Static compression is at 12:1 and the wastegate spring is 7psi (0.5bar)Dawie wrote: Mon Mar 11, 2019 11:15 am Looking nice those Deutz cylinders.
