More than welcome. Though I doubt an other will be built but you never know, their are plenty of bits you can take away and use separately to improve a 2F, 3F, 3FE or even a 2FE.

Matt.
 
Well we rolled out of the mech's onto the tow truck and off to MPC.

Every thing just squeezes in nicely.


















Last but not least

Hope you make it to Alaska in 2010. Would love to see it in person.
 
May have missed it - but are you planning to run a coil through the dissy, or are you going to use coilpacks?

Coil packs, Dizzy's just for timing now. May in time make a little Ali hat for it later.
 
Well I have to say I'm impressed with MPC's quality of work, they came recommended and so far have not disappointed.

All will be complete by the end of the week, poor photos for now as i only had my phone with me :doh:

Just the picture. If you look the 1st pic they are bolted with gaskets to the 3FE headers. Their is no exhaust as yet from the turbo. You can also see the outlet from the wastegate the will plumb into the exhaust once it's in place.
 
You plan on changing the oil someday don't you? Looks like the air duct may make that difficult over the top like that.

Looking great, can't wait to see it run and what kind of power you really get.

He was just fabing that section up when I called in today.

Interesting actually as the ones they have seen have only been on supercharged engines and with very good results. Nothing as large as mine though and never in conjunction with a Turbo. Laminova do tend to seem to push themselves towards the supercharged side of things rather than turbo though, no sure why that is as you a cooling hot compressed air however it is generated. Super charges I guess tend to be a more integrated unit which is what Laminova aim their cores at.
 
Ok here are a few better quality pictures;.

Coming along nicely too.

You can better see the Turbo manifold.
