dyt397c Posted July 10, 2008 Report Posted July 10, 2008 the v6 is finally put together and will be fitted in the Anglebox on saturday. hooray! hoping to be out sometime this year got new tyres fitted aswell 255 60 15`s
Col-ashtonmobile Posted July 10, 2008 Report Posted July 10, 2008 you know i love a v6, looks great mate wot sort of power ?
dyt397c Posted July 10, 2008 Author Report Posted July 10, 2008 not sure on power, friday night pub talk its probably 300bhp!! but realistically hoping for 190-200ish.
dyt397c Posted July 10, 2008 Author Report Posted July 10, 2008 might get 300 with bigger nitrous jets, but only once!!! what size valves are you running in your heads? i`ve been given some modded heads but think they`re only stage 2.
dyt397c Posted July 10, 2008 Author Report Posted July 10, 2008 are they full race? i dont think these are that big, i`ll have a measure up tomorrow.
Col-ashtonmobile Posted July 10, 2008 Report Posted July 10, 2008 yes mate measure yours and let me know

garyv6100e Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 That engine looks awsome i am going to rebuild my essex in the winter although i only want 200 bhp out of her . When do you hope to have it running
dyt397c Posted July 13, 2008 Author Report Posted July 13, 2008 i`m hoping to have the car finished for this year but the way things are going it`ll probably be next year!
corsair dean Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 what mods have you done to the engine is it 3.0 or 3.1
dyt397c Posted July 13, 2008 Author Report Posted July 13, 2008 3.0 litre, balanced bottom end, lightened flywheel, shot-peened rods, steel timing gear, burton cam, modded heads(think stage 2) Swaymar inlet(ported) 390 holley double pumper carb, lumenition ignition, magnecor leads, bosch super 4 plugs, tubular manifolds. i`m having another supercharger for it aswell, off a Mustang, and maybe twin-turbo`s, money permitting!!
corsair dean Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 excellent thanks that gives me some ideas!
