It would be fun to print stacks but with 100% fill it would take 4x 9 hours to print So Im going to save my time and just buy stacks.

I got front bushesh installed. I assembled front collectivelys and lifted engine back 8)
I wanted to see what the engine will look like so I put my spare cylinderhead on, put carbs and exhaust manifold to the head. Everything fits good and there is space to exhaustmanifold and carbs. Looks awesome I think

Awesome!

Process. Its waiting paint

Relocated battery. Old battery place was in the engine room. It was rusted and bad condition. I like clean and roomy engine room so I decided to put battery to trunk.

I hope you have a youtube account so we can hear the little dragon breathe when the time comes ;D

Some more trunk things. The trunk looked messy to me so I thought to do cover sheet. I used some junk piece of plywood and cutted it to right shape. Then I glued upholstery felt on the sheet.
When the car is ready I will put some videos I promise 8)

My friend brought the reworked cylinder head yesterday! It was awesome. It has new bigger valve seats and valves. Also new bronze valve guides 8) I need to grind end of ports bigger and plane the gasket surface and then its ready. I hope the D-Day is within month!

Spare tire cover turned out nice. Sounds like things are coming together for the motor.

Keep on pushin on mang!

Time flies Ive done something recently. Engine is not running yet, ive to plain few millimeters from the cylinderhead to raise compression rations. Now i ve ported whole cylinder head though. In picture there is orginal and reshaped port.
I started upholstering front seats. Old ones were so ripped and ragged.
Good news are that I do get self modelled 3D-printed velocity stacks. It took 28h of printing :
I also wanted more meters to car panels. There was ashtray I cutted a bit and bended plywood on it. Few holes, meters and on/off switchs later it was pretty nice.

Some more pics

Anxious to see this one running, keep up the great work.

 

[Munamankeli]

Me too 8)
I said earlier about velocity stacks and upholstery. But forgot to put pics.

Next weekend task: Assembly the cylinder head and put all together 8)

 

[Munamankeli]

So engine assembled now and its running! Here is link to video where I run engine briefly. Now it is in better tunes so its not spitting or backfiring anymore. 8)

Final setup is:
Block: Ford ohc 205 (2l) with std pistons. new bearings everywhere.
Cylinder head: from Ford ohc 1.6l, lowered few mm so compression ratio is 12.5:1.
- Larger valves, new valve guides
-Cam duration 294°, lift inlet valve 12.5mm, exhaust valve 12.3mm.
Carburators: double dellorto dhla 40 with 38 chockes.
Exhaust: header exhaust manifold 4-1 --> 2,5" exhaust pipe --> long free flow muffler --> 2" pipe --> short free flow muffler.
Clutch: std new one.

So next step is to take this to dyno and tune timing, carbs and cam timing to make best performance. Ill take video there too so you can see everything better and clearer

Took her to little test drive Feels pretty powerfull, cant wait to get this to dyno and get right tunes out of it ;D

I can dig it.

Nice work man. Curious about the velocity stacks, did you smooth them out before install? I do a lot of plastic 3D printing and the layer ridges are pretty prominent, I'm wondering if it will effect the airflow (turbulence)?
