Errol, I gather this monster datto L18 is supposed to be PRC legal? How do they get away with installing a head spacer, they way I understand it that would be illegal, is this not the case? I see you mention that was the original engine, do you know what this is being replaced with?
That would be a sick project though! Torque monster 2.4 rally engine! Just bolt on a 1" head spacer, sleeve the block to 89mm, line bore the main's and clearance the block and crank to drop in a Z24 96mm crank, custom 160.3mm rods and custom 25mm pin height forgies. 1.67 rod/stroke ratio 0.55mach index designed head fully efi... Ooh tempting, if head spacers are legal! Was there ever any L series 4 valve heads made that you could legally run on an engine like this? If so build yourself an FJ24 L series then! :)) Can you imagine that in a PRC legal sub 900kg datto?! I can. You might need some lead ballast in the floor to bring it up to the minimum weight for a 2.4L though! :P Cheers, Craig. E Smith wrote: > Yep its Glen bakker.
