Hey there!
Thank you very much! Lada on New Zealand?? Wow
Im going to use a lada transmission built to specs (ratios), so the clutch will stay hidraulic. You have the advantage that your brake cylinder is on the right side, well mine is obviously on the left side, so we will need to relocate it becouse of the horisontal carbs... I could use the one carb setup, but meh..
I love the sound of my carbs and 40% of the cars "feeling" is about the sound
So we still need to figure that out. I thing we are going to use a brake cylinder of a BMW 7-th series (e32), its smaller in size, but the brake "piston" (?) is bigger, so we can loosten the brake booster as well. I will keep my 60mm (~2.5 inch) exhaust with racing 4-1 downpipe(or whats it called?). Zola wants a better engine than mine (as always..
) so he is getting bigger valves, fully opened head, ~280-290? cams... So its going to be quite hardcore
Around 160-170 hp. I think he is going to need 45 webers, the 40 dello will be to small. Well time will tell us. For me the dellos will be just well, but will need to change the emulsion tubes and main jet (if my calculations are correct of course..)
I'l try to show the suspension mods, but I only have some sketches around on paper with only few distances/diameters, etc, but I will throw up an Autocad on the computer, and will start to draw it properly. I used to learn autocad, well we will see how much I remember..
Also I have a lot of measuring/calculation before its done. Well I hope for the best
What do you use your car on? Rally events / track racing etc? Pics maybe?
Thanks for writing!
Cheers
