The V8 Owners Forum -

Can someone tell me, if a six speed tremec and a 5 speed tremec, have the same bolt/pattern to connect to the bell housing? Real steel sell a rover V8 bell housing to bolt to a tremec, they didn't know if it would fit the 6 speed.

The engine was in a hill climb car, JE developments block, wildcat heads.

I don't think it's a con, as I spoke to the owner.

Just got to find some money now!


James

cheers,

did you measure the parts that the hose goes on to to get bore size needed?

James

I also have sd1 rad with a single fan, no problems

James

Im lookin to replace most of my hoses, does anyone know if I can get a complete kit for a rover, or do i have to get each hose seperate. also this begs the question on bore size of hoses where do a measure, old hose inside or part it fits too?

thanks in advance

*must type faster*

On the single turbo thread a guy has put a link for turbo calculator, if you scroll down it has compressor maps.

James

Just found out Nick manns turbo was TO4B (what ever that is )

James

Just a note, my friends twin turbo minor has two renault 18 turbo's on his, 1700cc for each side if you know what I mean, also Nick manns minor originally had a single turbo, not sure what it was but I'm sure someone will know out there for your reference..............I look forward to playing with ...

Ok that's fine, I wanted to turbo mine cheaply, and thought maybe I could use the Weber with a carb hat etc, but can sell it and use money for turbo's etc

Anyone got a janspeed kit hiding away!

James

Does anyone know whether a weber 500 carb could be used if twin turbo'd?

James

thanks Bill, just been lookin

Although firstly I thought you meant a rover 5.3!

But defo show's what can be done, just need to strap the minor to the floor!

James

Sorry did I miss a vid with 5.3 turbo?

any numbers will always be useful bill

cheers

I agree I suppose Iwas just seeing if the rover could stay, but I think not

There some nice packages on the web, although more than 5k but Very interesting. Right anyone want a e type

James

For the record I've been offered a 5.3 for 3.5k so I don't thinkit's that to hard. but it's answering my main query whether to stick to the rover. I can get a LS 1 plus 6speed tremec for similar money. Not sure on the iron block thou with weight wise although it could help stability at speed. thanks...
