Thank you for your thoughts - I agree that buying an engine disassembled is probably the way most people would want to go for an otherwise unknown...
As per the thread title, I would like to hear what people think a 246 engine & transmission would be worth? Having been ragged endlessly about...
Agreed - I wasn't sure if it was made by Holinger or SuperFlyte himself - either way, as you say, I hope the files are still to hand!
I can't resist - another question: Was that bell-housing custom-made, or do Holinger sell it? If the former, could it be reproduced at a sensible...
Further to my questions above, I'd love to know what wheelbase you're running; the original GT40 had a 95 inch wheelbase - is yours similar?
Ooh - I appear to have dribbled over my keyboard... What you have there is exactly what I want for my project! I'd love to know more - are there...
OK - thanks to the above comments, I've gone away and studied the relevant torque graphs; as a result I've now got my head around the fact that a...
Did you ever do this, and if so, which Hewland 'box did you use? LLS? LWS? MWS?
I would explain what my project is, but I'm still bearing the bruises from the last stoning I got on this site...
This is not for either a 430 or a 488!
Thank you for your informed input - it's much appreciated! Will it fit though? If so, I may look at a Hewland 'box for a 430.
Sort of...
By F154 engine, I mean something like a 488 or one of its derivatives!
I would be most grateful if someone would be kind enough to tell me whether an F430 gearbox (i.e. F136) will fit onto an F154 engine?
Ah - now I get you; please be assured, I won't be doing that!
I'd be most grateful if you'd be kind enough to translate that into UK-English as although I think I get the gist of what you're saying, it'd be...
Again - thank you for your positive stance! As far as I'm aware, the F430 'box will fit right onto a 458 block as they both use the F136 engine,...
Thank you for your positive comments - it's nice to know that not everyone wants to stone me! So - yes, the plan is, indeed, to dispense with all...
I won't be fitting air bags, but a cage is definitely on the list; as for brakes - I'm an ex-racecar engineer, so you can be assured that they'll...
That hadn't occurred to me... OK - yes, I'm well aware that it's a stupid thing to do, but the plan is to have a selectable series of maps that...
