It's looking like pocket pistons and pt81s may be the way forward?

Just be aware that in pocketing the pistons your basically gonna be doing a bottom end rebuild, well you may as well as it's in bits anyway?


Yea my thinking is pick up a known good engine and then strip at my leisure, get the pistons sorted and build it up as and when I have the time and funds

Thats pretty much what i did, much easier when your not on a timescale! Yes


Just read through your thread mate, very good read liked the pics especially. I think there may be some questions coming your way in the not too distant future Thumbs up

Race car is going well, 3 podiums (inc 1 win) in our first year so pretty happy with that. Hoping to go better next year with some further geo tweaks. Next big plan is the new engine but that's going to take time to build as funds have to go elsewhere first (race entry fees and fuel are a b**ch!).

Gotta get some dents taken out as well Sad

I have 2 engines, 1 car but I may be looking for another shell later this year as I may be looking to start racing next year! Big grin

Racing will be cool! Although I warn you now, it's a whole different level of expensive. I can afford to lease a brand new M5 for the amount I spend each month going racing!
