Tnx Shag!
Its finally back in the car too. It feels also still very weird bolting a 1200 40horse engine to a 911 3,2 Carrera transmission with a 228mm HD clutch set-up

You need to find a "1200" badge

Andy, look closely at the badge of Lars' twin turbo 1192cc challenge entry car last year:

How cool was that!

Very cool! could have sworn you said twin turbo 1200!.....

Yeah, he really ran a parallel twin-turbo (2x GT1544) 1200cc single R5 carb engine last year.
Hence the 1192TT (1192cc TwinTurbo) badge.
His will be EFI'd this year.

The german 1200 Dynochallenge is cutting edge

sounds great fun! what was his bhp? i wonder if a variable vain turbo would be good for a 1200....

when are you hoping to complete the build?

Build goes slowly and deadline is July this year. Lots to do still.
To create a little more room near the turbo and to seal up the internal gate better, I welded it shut:

Any more progress Wally?

Not yet Mario. I had/have a very busy few weeks with other things that had priority.
Only thing I did was block the fuelpomp hole with a neat billet Empi alu block-off plate and replaced the oil drainbolt with a magnetic one

Hey, that's progress in my book. Nothing had to come apart

Wally · Post by **Wally** » Sun Mar 31, 2013 12:46 pm

Indeed Mario

Managed to finally make plugs for all the extra injector holes so I could install the manifolds:

Now its time to fabricate all the tubing before, after and between the turbo's...

Drysump bottom pulley right? What are you doing for fan speed? Top pulley wise

Looks nice! Best of luck!

Looks like a Porsche 356 top pulley.
