Hi friends,
Firstly, I would just like to say how great it is to have this beautiful site back up. I spent many years trawling this site for parts, knowledge and inspiration. I had drifted away for a while but was shocked when I typed the URL in and nothing came up!! Good work.
Ok, so I'm planning on converting my Black clubby van to a k1200RS head. If you are looking for lots of updates and a fast moving project, jog on son. this crap's gonna be glacial at best.
I popped up a wanted ad for some parts and thought I should probably pop this up to outline the plan.
THE PLAN
- K1200RS head on an a plus Turbo 1300 block with Standard A-plus crank and conrods.
- Looking at a Garrett GT2554R as this is what Matt uses and Matt is SMART. Any other suggestions? Im going to go a single throttle body with a plenum.
- The EMS will be a Haltech 1500 Elite. I purchased this in a spur of the moment when they had their 20% off sale. It's a LOT of EMS and I really would love to utilise some of it's cool features. Im going EFI and ignition through it but would like to see the DBW, Road and race mapping, Cruise control, adaptive tune etc. do I know how to do any of this? No, not yet. I think I know what the acronyms mean though
Because this is going to be a project that takes YEARS, im planning on building up a whole other motor. I would like to learn a lot in this so im going to be taking on a few things I haven't done before. Im excited.
Anyway, so far all I have is the mini and the Haltech Elite 1500.
Got any bits that might help me make this happen, shoot me a PM.
Thanks
DC
