After 5 months of busting ass the final prototypes are completed...
In the pics attached you'll see the roller cams and lifters that will help to boost the TIV even higher in 2007 and beyond... In one of them you'll see a roller cam thats only 2 degrees altered from it's flat tappet cousin side by side for comparison- they'll be getting tested the same way- back to back.... The roller cam is also only .010 healthier on lift than the flat tappet, but look at how much of a difference the lobes have.... I posted more pics and text over on my forums, but thought that grant and trekkor would like to see these so they could start their bashing before they were even tested.. They'll need the head start. Attached thumbnail(s)

BK911, If you know solid works I can definately put you on a very interesting project that makes these roller cams look like child's play... Most of the project is finished and we only need to complete some small issues and finish the design. email me at productdevelopment@aircooledtechnology.com
snflupigus, The mold that was bought from Disney was used for the Herbie movies. It is an exact recreation of a 1963 ragtop beetle. The chassis is being built by one of my fabrication shops, Tarmac Motorsports. They do a lot of high end chassis fab work for several different race series and will be building the entire chassis from chromoly tubing. The beetle body will be sitting atop the entire chassis. The 993 parts being used are trailing arms and front suspension parts that will be integrated into the chassis. FYI- 1.5 years ago I finished an engine for a teener owner that was building a C/F bodied 914. The engine is complete but the car is not because his wife passed away and broke his concentration seriously.. Beetle owners are much more serious about their projects than teeners- all of my crazy engines are installed into VWs :-) |
