Ah, thanks. I'm used to BHP (brake hp, engine dyno) and WHP (wheel hp, chassis).

The 901 tranny is the most power sucking box I have experienced yet, the Type 1 tranny loses 1/2 as much power at the rear wheels as the 901..


Jake

Can a 915 be used adn have you had any results with it?

Thanks,

Mark

How do you put a bug box in a 914? It would be better all around for Autocross. Only need 3 gears mostly but occasionaly 4.
lighter and LSD's are cheaper.

HMMMMMM.

About the bug box... had some of the same thoughts, but never really researched it out...

Jake/Dave- I see ITB's on the pics of the test engine. How big are they? I'm curious as to what size you used to compair to the ones I bought from you a couple yrs back.

Jake- I see the bracket for the SDS crank sensor is mounted on the alternator side, and you used an old A/C pulley for the mags. I used the same pulley. There are 2 that styles of puley that were used, one had angled sides, the other was flat. I see a run coming on the flat style pulley. I had considered the mounting bracket system you used but discounted it as I wanted the sensor and wireing as far away from the alternator as possible to avoid any electrical interferance issues. Looks like that mounting position is working fine w/no electrical problems for you. Thats great, as it makes for an easier install on the next engine. My SDS thread below has pics of how we did the install on my project.

Dave- I'd pay close attention to your actual routing of those sensor cables as they go back to the ECU when you fully dress the motor and get it back in your car.

Yes, and Yes... I even have a special flywheel that uses the 915 clutch pack and bolts right to a TIV engine. I am using a 915 in my 60' beetle with this same arrangement coupled to my 280 HP 2.8L N/A pump gas engine.

These are 45s. Most of the time a 40mm T/B works better with this combo, but Dave's engine is "different".

Correct.. Most of the angled pulleys came on Bus engines.

QUOTE
I see a run coming on the flat style pulley.

I have dozens of them. Making a laser cut replica of it with the holes for the magnets built right in is what I'll do as well as having the bracket laser cut as well. This will allow for absolute bolt on capability for anyone.

I had considered the mounting bracket system you used but discounted it as I wanted the sensor and wireing as far away from the alternator as possible to avoid any electrical interferance issues.

The wires are shielded and the alternator doesn't have high voltage interference.. I knew we'd be OK because an alternator doesn't even generate enough static to make my CHT sensors and thermocouples do wacky things...

QUOTE

None at all... Dave wondered how well it would work, but I told him it would be fine.

We have never done it the same way twice with stock cooling.. Now we'll never do it another way.

This is a really good thread and example of what Jake is capable of doing to a Type4 engine. My next project is just starting but is sure looking like it might end up with one of Jakes engines. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

On that same note K, I am sure Dave knows if he needs any help he'll have it.

Not that you would want a bunch of people watching over you as the engine goes in. But if you don't mind, let us know when and I'll try like hell to make it over. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I got it all packed up despite a few distractions. The afternoons' entertainment was a watch Jake's Pinz destroy a desk. This trip Jake took me off roadin the Pinz in the snow, cutting donuts in the snow with a golf cart and now this. Fun got in the way of work.

Jake - is the cam one of your roller grinds or tappet grind? You using the Schubeck (or whatever they were called) design lifters with no bearings on the roller?

This is a conventional camshaft!! it is NOT a roller profile!!! In fact it is a STOCK camshaft profile for a domestic sports car! I "robbed" the profile in 2005 especially for FI engine development but I never dreamed it would do anything like this!

wow Jake, kudos then dude. That is impressive power per cube then (sorry, don't think in liters and cc's very well hahaha).

2.27L*~60cubes/L=136.2 cubes
200HP/136.2=1.468HP/cube

My car is 353 cubes * 1.468 ~ 518HP. I made 525HP on mine with a raspy tappet cam so that is some solid numbers with a small tappet cam. Actually I bleed off a lot of cylinder pressure on my car which hurts me a bit in overall power, but I just wanted all that noise hahaha (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) That is a good combo you have going there for the type 4 crowd (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)

David

I already have the engine bay layout planned. With the Hall sensor cables I'll make a hard right angle turn upward and machine a spot for a grommet between the case and the cooling shroud near where the bracket is for the thermostat cable.

The coil will be amid ships on the rear firewall and plug leads will run to the cylindrs from the rear. All of the sensors andFI leads will run from the fan end of the engine. Relays will be on the front firewall behind the driver's head and the breather box will be on the front firewall behind the passenger's head. The ECU will be between the seats at the firewall.
