The Zens long gone and havent had a project car for sometime now, so time for another one. havent really thought about what car its going to be (suzuki for sure) as i dont have any but time to take another twin cam and push it to deliver more..

work on the engine has already started -

* port n polish
* 13:1 high compression pistons
* valve job, bigger titanium valves, solid lifts
* suzuki sport race cams/cam pulleys
* individual throttle bodies with 8 injector set up
* knife egded crank
* individual ignitors for each cylinder, msd ignition
* aluminuim flywheel
* 2 way lsd
* dog box with a final drive ratio of 4.4
* alcohol injection

still have to decide what engine management to run and off course what car to put it in .

keep posting as and when i make progress

cheers,

phil

Lovely. More pics as the work progresses is a fine idea.
What is targeted top speed and BHP?

Subscribed!!!

Bythe by: do something about the title....amiss...

@sudev 150/160 horse power would be a safe estimation, but then estimation only. but then also have to see what tyres to run
top speed depends on gearing, 4.4 final drive should be 150kmph ?

but should rev to 9000 rpm in my opinion .

5zigen exhaust muffler is on its way to make it sound sweet at that rpm.


@mayank - what to do about that ?

[JayD]

Naais! But why did u stop the zen project abruptly? Was a very interesting one! !


So, which car is this engine gonna be in, an esteem i presume?

[Spitfire]

Awesome and looking forward to it too.

Err.. Shouldnt the heading be Widow Maker? and not Marker..

[speedsport]

Oppps... now how do i change that ? cant seem to figure it out..

@jayD - i got an offer i couldnt refuse so sold it

WHAT ????? You sold the Yellow Zen ???? I know how you hunted for a Carbon 2 door like forever !!

With you one can never tell You & your long list of surprises !

All the best for the project, so from what little I understand - this one is going faster than the Yellow Monstrosity ???? Alcohol injection ? God help !!

An afterthought - why do you not complete your EVO ?? That should be quite a sling-shot !



Cheers

@ricky - for sure it'll be faster !

a friend of your only bought it.

Evo work is on in full swing, should be on wheels soon.

cheers,

Some friend of "mine" bought it - & I do not know ?? Does he drive a Gypsy ??

Nice to know that the work on the EVO is full on. Would L O V E to take a drive (maybe with a lumbar support belt) - but would like to any which way. Kindly book a slot for TD

AND you want another TWIN CAM with 150 BHP ?? Enigma !! That is what I shall call you henceforth



Cheers

I am going to follow your thread closely. I have an Esteem lying around and I am very keen to do something insane with it.

[Ricky_63]

Any pictorial updates or otherwise ?? This is more a teaser - NOT FAIR !! Awaiting updates - Wake up Phil !!

[speedsport]

sorry about the long absense, settled for an esteem finally, 2006 vxi.

engine fired up last evening, right now for running in running single throttle body intake and stock cams. its just simpler this way.

post running in the itbs,cams etc will go in..

heres a teaser..

[Ricky_63]

Is it the same engine or another one ?? Earlier one was blue - this one is red - or have you just painted the thing ?? Suspicious me !! When is it rolling ?




Cheers

Can the thread title be a bit different?
