Otherwise good tuning session, but three plugs fouled maybe due too rich condition and quess can you find new spark plugs on Sunday here in Finland Smile.

That is really exciting Seppo.  Sometimes I think it would be such great fun to have a group project.  Not just to share the work load, but to share all the excitement the instant it is happening.  Accountability, motivation and sharing costs would all be at play.

Well.... eehh... It died today w00t

Only one run and then one original 1962 cast piston from cylinder #5 broke and then the number #5 connecting rod broke and it broke the camshaft and that allowed four lifters to fall down from cylinders 1 and 5 and also four push rods fell down to oil pan! So, not exactly what we were after at, but it really pushes hard at the end. At the start all the fuel maps are not correct yet, but the feeling is that those turbos really hit hard when the time comes. And defenitely too hard to stock parts BigGrin. No worries, we'll be back on track with the new bottom end and we hope we didn't broke that forged crankshaft. The block may well be dead also, but that is another story and we'll find out that later...

And data tells us that we had only 0.52 bar of boost at that run.
