Chris, it's just a rodchange box with an early 1100S motor put on. These had a small journal crank, & S rods.
His other motor was the same type, but crank was good and bore std 1275. :wink:

No worries, i figure I owe you at least a few :wink:

I had heaps of fun! learnt a thing or two. Most importantly if I didn't pull the engine apart to find out the inards I'd probably not be able to sleep for the rest of the week before I took it apart next weekend! :lol:

Pops is number one, Brad's car is number two. But we all know which car I really like best! I'll give you a hint, I am building Lillee to be almost exactly the same as this car! Tis my first love! I said that "I want one" when I first had a ride in it many moons ago and I still want it today! Pops and Brad's beast won't change that.

No prizes for guessing which car I am talking about :wink:

[EDIT] Can I just talk about brad's beast for alittle while? I had the honour and privledge of riding in it TWICE this weekend. *@&%#! it's a BEAST! OMG I nearly had to go have a change of undies after a ride in that thing, and he didn't even turn up the boost that far!!! It's a ballistic missile!

I said to brad "God I am glad that you're driving it and not some P plater (Probably get flamed for that comment) but it's true! That Golden Bullet of his is one heck of a car!!!

ok I've said my piece...

Repco used to weld them up (30 years ago) with an automatic process then grind them back. I used to get VW ones done.
Probably easier to go find another. But hey, it's not cracked!! :lol:
ps. it's only a small journal one, so can't just grind it down.


I have had them hard chromed and ground. Worked well.
