the supercharger setup with a nice turbo setup and you have a pretty darn
nice engine

>Ozdatters,
>Thanx, you guys are great. The motor did stay cool for a while but after
>about 90km at 120 it did start to sit at the same temp as yesterday.(I have
>an old smiths and it shows approx. 100F?) Anyway I got a 71 deg c termostat
>and a new housing. Since taking out the dead one I see a lot of bad sh*t in
>the coolant considering I have flushed it twice in 3mths. The engineer
didnt
>pass it but didnt fail it either. He was OK but gave me greif on the build
>date and picked out sh*tty little things. Thanks for the heater tips, all I
>need now is a roof some doors, oh, and a heater;)
>BTW did anyone go to Wakefield for the championships on the weekend? There
>was a mad 1600, 120y and a really old Skyline. Very enjoyable day with a 7
>capping of a 1:01 on the new track. Best the super v8s could get was a
1:09.
>Go the 4s.
>P.S. Did the CA16 ever come out in a rear wheel drive config? For
>competition I cant go any bigger. For the street/sprints CA18 sure,but for
>the series I cant go over 1600.
>Thanx heaps
