S54 stroker kit

[BMW M3 VLN]

Looks like a P60b40 engine picture, I have some spare parts for that race engine if your looking for any. I also have a used P65b44 4.4 liter V8 if you would like the successor to that engine. Let me know.

It's an s62 matey.

P65 is a nice thing to have!

Hi,

The Mondeo V6 does not
have a Gasket in it.

When I was first told this I thought they
were joking but every surface was
'Glass True' just the ability to design and
then run in competition that engine is
remarkable.

Prodrive did the Race engines under
some sort of Confidentiality Licence.

Apparently they were good for around
1500/2000 kms on a good day and then
it was all replaced.

That was when Fords Race budget
on Touring Cars was the same as
most F1 teams.

Regards,

The Gorilla.

They have period F1 injectors on them too, the fuel rails mean the injectors are firing straight down the trumpets, the attention to detail is wonderful.

Didn't know that about the gasket.

Hi,

Nathan- did the ALMS E46 have the MacL
rear end as not all of them did ?

Looking at the Front Strut tops and the
Cage it suggest it did, but PTG also
did their own version, which was more
akin the std E46 but replaced the rear arms,
with Ti versions, no rear subframe, diff was mounted
directly to the chassis etc and both the tie
links were rod ended adjustable.

It was the only way to get the diff up
high enough for the ramp angles and
also save weight.

Picture you posted looks more like a
BMW MS/ Schnitzer Shell with the diamond Turret
top ala 320 ST.

Guy I know in Norway has a 96/97 Works DTM
Opel ex Team Joest etc with full Xtrac 4 wheel
drive Cosworth 2.5 V6 KF engine, Opel tried
many times to buy it back and all the Spares,
engines / Geraboxes etc he purchased it
when they sold it all of.

That Cosworth KF engine makes 510 BHP at 10,600 rpm from
a 2.5 V6, you can feel your Bones resonate at
Peak rpm.

Regards,

The Gorilla.

Mondeos with the 2L v6 - engine is so low that one of the drive shafts passes through the middle of the V on the way to the wheel, details like wiper motors on the floor with hollow carbon rods connecting to the wipers to lower COG, the attention to detail was amazing.

The Roush Mondeos, could not even shut the bonnet without damaging it as the top mounts mounted so high

Engine sounds amazing me old Primate, some revs! Will have a look at e46 next time I'm working on it but no rockers in the boot that I've noticed.

Found a pic of mondeo injector setup on my phone, not great quality but you get the idea.

Martin - this is a prodrive one you got any pics of the Roush ones? Forgot to mention load cells built in to the top mounts, properly cool things these old race cars eh.

If he wants to move to MoTeC it's all been done before

Hi,

Nathan- The Cosworth KF engine was the same,
I think most went the same route as money was
being thrown around like confetti.
