Vr4 in the build from down under

[misterfixit]

Quoting VR42LT:
Yeah the crank is billet the same material as the end caps all of it is cnc machined, the chrome wasnt a priority at the time but the bug hit me after i did a few little things and before i knew it i was unbolting everything to go to the chromer. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif



did you have the caps and mains line bored at the same time before the build? If not i'd seriously advise it, thats whey the maincaps and blocks are matched and id'd for location from the factory, or you'll get mega buildup of tolerances across the mains from one end of the block to the other.

I believe PAR make the rods for MAGNUS.

As for the crank?? Not too sure.. unless it is the same story?!?!



Baz is there anything you dont know!!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
Yes it is a magnus crank and rod set up, and yes it has been line bored.

I'm moving to Australia its like everyone of you guys have a genetic trait or something in the water that creates insane builds. Maybe its because the water flushes in the wrong direction. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Badass for sure keep us posted

 

[VR42LT]

Hey Thanks curtis, you guys go alright over there too. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif Hopefully get the engine put together in the next couple of weeks so more pics for sure.

Very nice setup.

Where in Aus are you moving Curtis?

 

[brisvr4]

lol Scotty! I think Curtis might have been joking!

 

[ozyvr4]

Thanks Tim. Now I feel silly. How you been mate. Have you found the parts for the gearbox yet.

 

[brisvr4]

Good Scott /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif I's going to buy them from Jacks mate. Just need to work out if I am likely to screw the bearings when I press them off!

 

[curtis]

You need to read more of my posts and post more yourself. Then you'll know when I'm talking the shitz. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

One thing for sure you guys have some awesome builds over there.



I think you guys should do a Australia / New Zealand thread and post pictures of all the cars there with members represented on here. Oh and add the build of the one guy with the tricked out drag car with the true flame paint job.

 

[brisvr4]

Not a bad idea Curtis! I just need to keep mine on the road long enough to actually get some pics! lol
I'll see if I can upload some vids of mine from the drags /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[VR42LT]

Australia/New Zealand thread sounds cool

 

[RedTwo]

Unfortunately we're usually to laid back to get around to doing that kind of thing...
Or does that count as lazy? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif
