Retro Power Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 a little teaser, will put more up when the non-dummy engine is built! This is to go in one of the Ascona 400 replicas that we're building Thought it might be of interest as not many go the xe+ blower route eaton M90 should do the trick needless to say the TIG welder and milling machine have been working overtime, but it now had a water cooled inlet maniflold with nice internal radius intakes, all super compact to fit in a stock engine bay and under the stock bonnet.......should be good!

I liked the idea, did some maths and decided that an M90 ought to be good for around 16psi or so on a low comp. XE, and it'll make that at idle........350hp with nice throttle response......fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
