Evil 7 - I never realised you were in aussie. Are you a kiwi or do you just like Jeff, Arnie & Alec's work??

 

I am actually from U.K but live in Aussie , I am a huge fan of those Kiwi boys !

 

anyone have a link to pictures of some of burns work? I know the site and couldn't find anything.

 

Can you tell us a little more about your cooling system? Looks nice, and to keep that beast cool it has to be very good

 

Pretty simple , big *** aluminium radiator , davies craig water pump and -16 braided lines .

 

How about these Node?

 

sweet!
i wonder if you could run coolant like this but through a dry sump, just another section added. My only thoughts are if they run at the same flowrate or not.
Just hope to dear god that belt never has any problems.

I'll post the link instead of the pics http://burnsstainless.com/Burns_Fami...lefever_0.html

 

Just think downforce ! This guy knows his stuff .

 

OMFG!!!!!
That **** should be in a museum, are there more pictures of that engine?

 

You guys keep sneaking replies in on me!

And silver, you linked me to his e-mail lmfao

Yeah this guy is THE sh*t! His stuff really does belong in a museum.......and i mean that literally

 

Yeah but then i edited it......your just too fast for me Node!

 

Is he a chassis man or just an all around builder? I'm sure when the car is done it'll look better than the pic provided......i hope

 

It must help having access to all of that stainless, aluminum and mandrel benders along with all of those other pretty toys.
I will learn to arc weld one of these days!!!

 

holy ****, that intakemakes me want to throw up

He had it built by a top chassis guy who has built a couple of 6 second V8's . But he knows his way around a chassis , just easier to get someone else to build it . It looks tough as F--k now with the body painted and carbon body on it .

 

Just thought of another reason. What about added heat to the coolant by flowing so close to the oil?

 

thats one sweet *** car

 

evil 7 roughly how much did all this cost you? i'd say over $100 grand u.s. plus the car. you know you're a baller when you've got 3 motec cdi's stacked on top of one another. you must be the richest man in the world

 

Whats a baller ? Um something like that , not cheap . I am no longer the richest man anymore !

 

Funny, I was taking a shower and thinking (yup, I can do both at the same time )why hasn't anybody in Puerto Rico build a peripheral turbo engine?!?!?

And then I thought nah probably to complicated ........

Couple of minutes later I stumble with this thread I honestly hope you break some kind of barrier with your work (low 6's )

Best of luck to you!!

 

Another of my engine builders customers in the USA is a guy called Sammy who owns a green 2nd gen rx7 with a 13G PP turbo in it , it has run 7.5 so far or someyhing close . I'm sure he is puerto rican .

 

that is what we call people such as yourself. anyway, have you aussies figured out a good way to easily install the 20b? in the u.s., we've got a lot of problems w/ the conversion. the conversions either result in bumpsteer or else involve hacking up the firewall. do you guys have a better solution than we do?

 

So is that a good thing then ?

No easy way to do it , the FD was never made for such a big engine so it is all custom fabrication to make it fit properly , no other way around it , if it was that easy everyone would be doing it ! My engine is a short crank block so its shorter than a 'real' 20B and stronger too , this helps fitment .
