Hey guys and girls

 

Lots of smoke at the W/E so took it into the garage and low compression on number 5, full of oil.

 

Its coming out tomorrow to get the full picture. Gutted once again!

 

Hey Ho at least it will be fixed when I get it back I guess.

 

Any tips for what to get done while its out? I was going to get the engine bay steam cleaned and get the heater matrix replaced. Its got wiseco pistons and 555's is it worth investing in after market rods or are the standard ones up to the job?

 

Cheers

if you can afford it ,build it for the future, think what power you will want to be running then decide what you need to do

thanks mate ive never driven anything more powerful than my old 300hp porker. Id like the zed to be as quick as say a tuscan what sort of power should I be aiming for?

 

I want to create a well balanced driveable road and track car. Not so much power that it overwhelms the chassis and suspension.

I've ran a 13.3 quarter mile in mine on a standard engine, I was behind a tuscan on the motorway and he floored it but I kept up so I would of thought if you have uprated pistons and injectors it would be quicker than mine?

Its got low compression WITH the wiseco's fited????

????? nothing surprises me anymore ?????

 

Just hope they fix it
