Something different (3 door Cosworth) - Page 2

Nice AP's

I think 'in car' Dave's old engine was around 440bhp IIRC?

A full Roller Bearing T4 would easily be on par with a normal T38 I reckon and would pull much harder than a T38

Speak to Harvey (Gibbs) at SCS about an Ahmed beam, they arn't too bad a price...

Might look into a modern T4 if they are less laggy.

The torque curve on the engine should be interesting coupled to the 2WD set up

They are these days mate, much different to a normal RS500 T4

Actually putting the power down should be interesting to say the least as well!

Small update,
Had a few hrs spare today so got cracking on a couple of jobs.
Fitted my Black wing Grills to the CSL then decided to do some work on the 3 door engine.
Broke out the WRC Gasket and fitted that along with the head.

Then spent a bit of time and installed the Manifold Studs along with the Manifold and Turbo.

Slowly getting there
