Mine did require quite a bit of pumping to build pressure in the clutch line, more than other cars I am used to, but it worked out eventually. I...
Those are 575 seats though, very different and IMO less comfortable than 550 seats in my experience.
Good job. Interesting timing as I am going exactly through this with a Bristol 2L engine. The damper carrier won't come off but at least the...
Ok. It would have been interesting to know the mixture in the mains in closed loop with the valve forced open.
Did you measure the mixture anywhere else than on full load?
@johnk... Under full load the fueling goes to open loop and what the lambda sensors measure is then not considered by the ECU. When running in...
The issue with the stock layout is the gases going round in circles. Any solution that allows breaking this vicious circle should be considered,...
PS : stationary testing may not give the same results as tests made with the engine under load.
Great tests, thanks. There is flow and then there is exhaust pulsations. Exhaust gases may well flow out of all 4 outlets on full load but when...
Only to get a decent soundtrack?
That should not be an issue considering there should never be two pairs of outlet valves from opposing banks open as the same time.
Well, I once found myself with the valve locked closed and the engine felt significantly down on power even with no main cats, and that was not a...
Were the readings the same regardless of engine speed and load?
Although 60hp sounds really excessive it is not hard to imagine a significant bump in power by deleting the central pipe and using 2 separate...
Obsolete information taken from the 550 owner's manual, since the updated 575 belt design...
Replacing the cam belts is every 5 years, not 3.
I have been finding difficult to shift into 1st and 2nd gear when the engine is not running and when I start it from cold it will always take some...
Are these subwoofers behind the seats?
Since cycling the ignition more than 3 or 4 times without getting the car to move will cause the suspension failure sign to show on the multi...
Another great video. Front o-rings are indeed green, the rear ones are black.
