2.5 L Race Photo
 

Well its ready to go in,
Too bad 2 more weeks before the Fab guy
can take the car. Crap, missing 2 raceshttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1078966917.jpg

Mmmmm, pretty!

Thanks Mate

Wow! Did you swiss cheese that crossbar for the motor mounts or does someone sell it that way?

Fab guy did it. No big deal but we went a little
lite and it twisted a little. put in a gusset and
AOK

Minkoff, where did you get the blanking plate for the L side fan? Been chasing a source for a while.

Porsche Only part. I got it from Andial

Here in the states heater block offs are available from a number of sources.....

Thanks Tim.... who? ;)

To be PC check pelican,

but I know for a fact that they are available from

GT racing

I think smart racing sells them

The price is kinda ridiculous though about $250 USD for a pair

Thanks Tim, I did check Pelican but got no result. But "Yowza" they are expensive!

Cheers

That looks cool :) - what are it's specs and how much power do you expect to get?

'89 S4

2.5 L short stroke, Carillos, Boatailed and polishes case(alum) Mahle P and C(Nickasil), Knifed Crank, Carrera Pump, All sprockets lightened, 10.2:1 compression 911 S Sportcam (webb Cam) EBS valve springs, Titanium Retainers, PMO Carbs 46MM, Dual Fuelpumps, 20 Quart oiling system. Hopefully 210 -230 HP to the rear wheels. The car will weigh 1850-1900 pounds.

Should be a rocket :).

I'm in the early stages of building something similar. Several isiues/questions...

1. I don't see any pressure feeds to the chain tensioners??? or am I going blind?

2. 46mm PMOs? All my calculations indicate 40mm with 36mm venturis to be about on the money. How did you decide on 46mm? - just curious.

3. Where did you get 89mm P&Cs?

4. Such a mild cam?

5. Single plug heads? At 10.2:1, I would have thought twin plugs might be a benefit?

Minkoff, I'm not questioning your build, just curiious as to how you came up with the particular mix of components as I'm in the decision phase myself.

I have had good luck w mechanical tensioners, my German engineer suggested 46MM Carbs, 120/104 cam grind good power band for the tracks I run. 89MM Mahles from Andial bought them 3 years ago. Twin plug will be the next upgrade when I refreshen, but w my crane Hi 6 ignition I get great combustion. 906 CAM...NO power band too high I like my engines to last. Ive run this race car for 5 years, already proven success. Im just moving from a 2.2 to a 2.5 cause my class allows it
