@AZBanks these folks "Lanzante Limited" already have the McLaren engines stuffed into their small production of the Niki Lauda tribute 930's...but you're correct Very Cool !


That's pretty insane.

Slipping on the CV boots on to the sway-away axles are a bit of a grunt, so I implemented a few tricks;
a bit of contractors tape covering the sharp splines, well greased

For the "Push + Twist" a small piece of 10 ga. Insulsted stranded wire (used in construction wiring) coiled around and inserted over the last 2 bellows on the boot. Good point of persuasion & no collapsing (or damage) of the rubber. Note discoloration on the bellows are not cracks...just the mfg "Wax" coming off.

The bigger sending unit will serve the analogue VDO o/p gauge. The Haltech Elite mgmt does have an o/p readout that is on the Racetech IQ3 dash...however I do like a quick glance at an old school gauge (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

What are these bolts for? I've never seen a set up like that.

Thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Guessing for ease of access to the drivetrain? Removal and reinstall?

@krazykonrad @BillJ when we took our LBP engine measurements directly off of their built Cayenne v8 engines in their shop, the specs were based on their (flush) c/f cam housing covers [see yellow dots]. The absence of variable cam timing in their Daytona-spec engines was dictated by GCR's of 2010, so they didn't use the OE alum housings (with a bump-out contour). Our engine also features non-vario cam, but they just deactivate and lock them down during the engine build. When our engine shipment arrived we then found out that we didn't get the (very cool) c/f cam covers...but already built the interior cage to the specs of the flush c/f covers = interference once we tried to land the engine in there.
So we re-engineered, newly mandrel formed, then tiG'd the new bolt-in portion of the cage (at the firewall)...which will allow us more access to service the engine.

LBP v8 engine that was built for us arrived with these OE style cam cover housings. Yellow dots show the difference (from prev post) now with extra protrusions (vario cam style), that we had to deal with...redesigning a portion of the cage.
