Hi everyone, |
|
First of all apologies for my lack of website integration, I |
|
have been very busy and had some changes in my life, but I'm |
|
back now :) |
|
I thought I'd share my latest project with you all, I'm quite a |
|
lada enthusiast, I have 2, ones my daily and one (the red bear) |
|
is going to be built to FIA rally spec. |
|
It's going to mostly be videos but I'll post them on here and |
|
what not. |
|
Since starting I have made some decisions on the power plant, |
|
which will be covered in a later video 8) |

That's going to be a massive project. I seem to remember the |
|
fiat twincam engine was a popular swap for the Lada's. |

Yes fiat twin cam was a common swap, quite hard to come by now. |
|
They share the same engine block as the lada so we're a straight |
|
swap. My powerplant swap Is going to be a more modern approach |
|
👍 |

We found making cross section of cills to look like this l/ |
|
prevented them bellying quite so bad in challenge events. |

Yeah that's essentially how the cills will be shaped on this one |
