Cheers Peter

I got the pulleys from the guy who makes them in the UK,he makes them for Martin Reyland...they are top class but he is a bit unreliable and slow with postage...it took 3 goes to get what I was after, although he did machine from scratch the crank pulley which is small turbo escort cosworth format.

I have another crank pulley here if your interested

Cheers,

Phil.

Woo!

Lots of nice stuff there. Would love to see this when next in Adelaide.

Any info you may need re dry sump feel free to contact (although I am sure you know your stuff). I have machined mountune under piston jets into block, sealed engine with vac reg on the rocker cover (need flow as well as vacuum - imagine sucking a empty milk bottle) and one way flapper valve out of normal pcv area to blow off any positive pressure.

Also got quite a few ideas re SDL integration of car - did you get a PDM aswell?

Very cool - make sure you download a copy of ADL manager so you can write custom canbus templates that you can then load into SDL manager - for example then you can get water temp into the PDM for fan control etc. Can also get oil pressure into PDM so if will not fire under cranking unless oil pressure etc.

Think I have the motec document somewhere if you need it.

How did the head go in the end? Get it ported?
