New Engine Possibillities

@ Lucky_

Have you got this build done ?

[RS@WUB]

As above how is it coming along.

notice the build list did not have new head bolts. I went new Ford ones, looking back I should have gone upgraded version.

@robroy

Yeah was all done when I posted that picture. Only issue I’ve came across is that it’s loosing coolant, it never lost any coolant prior to the rebuild.

I’m thinking about changing a couple of things and going down to sabre for a proper map.

There was another RS in for work when he finished mine. Think he said the rod came out the block so a new block is needed.

 

@rs@wub

He said everything else was fine.  I would have gotten uprated bolts but he said there’s not much point unless I was building for 500+ bhp. Even using the king bearings, he believes there’s not much difference at this level but I still got them anyway.

@ Lucky_

who built yours ?

AG Motorsport in Kilmarnock

Well recommended for anyone near here

On a side note, speaking of AG motorsport. Does anyone recall the mk2 focus ST they built a good few years ago. The only thing ST left about it was the shell. That thing was rapid

Not seen it. Have seen a couple of mk2 rs though.  The last one had a cosworth engine if I remember right.
