Luke's Minibus 1st V6 24v cosworth now fitting a 2JZGTE

[AndyG]

Just tried it

Your 0 to 60 time is: 0

[BROWNYS V6]

yes there is a website i found once, cant remember what its called but worked out my 13.2 in my escort to 60 is 5 seconds
edit think its here http://www.wallaceracing.com/index.html

just checked it again 4.98

[Luke]

can't see how you can work 0-60 from the ¼mile time without factoring in the ET - even then it's got to be a guess - for example that atom vs the chevy V8 (videos on you tube) the atom shot off like a bullet then the chevy just passed it before the line

anyways todays update this evening not that theres much of it

[Luke]

today i was getting the engine out i think if it was summer i'd have managed it in 1 day but frostbite was setting in i miss the summer evenings - i'm not really a winter person

here's a pic my dad took - he could have told me i had my FORD hat on sideways

tut tut not very sensible shoes to wearing when taking an engine out.

OLD SKOOL rules

[AlanN]

I do love the sound of a good ole V8, but Japs with some help from the Germans are taking over

[Luke]

well if anyone cares to build a V8 transit i'd be more than happy to take them on, on the strip

any takers ................... geoff

[MinorMatt]

got my FORD hat on the right way round this time

took a bit of pulling the dash to bits to get to the ecu and loom plugs



and proof this engine had some power......... it'd broke off both engine mounts was only resting there

[AndyJ2506]
