"The 964 3.6L case is retained and re-machined with the displacement stroked to just under 4000cc using bespoke Mahle pistons and cylinders, controlled by super light ( and bespoke ) Carrillo con rods which in turn are connected to a Pankl crankshaft, also bespoke (there's a pattern here! ) Cylinder heads are custom made as is the fuel injection system that operates via 50mm Jenvey individual throttle bodies.

The engine has dynoed with around 315Ib/ft at 6000 rpm ( on a lovely progressive curve) and around 390 HP with the sense of more incremental gains as we fine tune. She's a monster and will imbue the cars with instantaneous thrust from lows revs and the same thrilling firepower when the rev limit is explored as the 3.8L engine - this time there's just more of it."

That leather is the same spec that I had 15 years ago in my Waco Biplane. Looks great.. Allan

 

I look forward to keeping this thread updated as things progress.

 

Amazing looking car!! Whats the weight on the "super light ( and bespoke ) Carrillo con rods " ? Are they steel?

 

I have no idea

 

Hello guys! I'm new on this forum and this topic makes me think it was worthwhile subscribing!

Matteuson, I just wanna say that the color combination combination you've chosen is really classy. When do you think your car will be ready?

 

Thank you, I think so too. The car should be done on or before 4/1/15.

 

Hi guys - keeping thread updated and getting close to the car seeing first light around late november

Here is a rendering .. interior is tobacco brown

 

 

Nice color combination Superquant! Are you going to order it this way?

 

That's hot. That's seriously hot.

Looking forward to seeing pics.

 

That's awesome news superqaunt! Can't wait to see it

 

+1!

 

Don't know what impresses me more, the color or the fact that you have the patience to wait so long to take delivery.

 

I know, awesome color combo and what happened to, "I need a Singer for this weekend"
