I like engines that make power. Lots of power. My engine might be stuck under 200hp for now but I am happy to say it's capable of revving an extra 1000rpm (from 6K) with stock valve springs, it's got room to port it out and it's more than capable of making 100hp/L with the right investment without even resorting to turbochargers. Fully race built my Nissan VG30E can make 1500hp for a short period of time....or at least 900hp in reliable race application. Also happens to be probably the simplest V6 ever made, no major flaws. I've seen them go past 300K miles. I highly doubt those VW motors can manage that :P

In reverence of lots of power my third contribution

I already knew, but you see... a love of mine is watching a guy get oily and sweaty while working on a car. So... um.

Yeah.

If I had changed my shirt tonight while working on my car, I would have completely soaked 3 of them probably. I also have had to drink half a gallon of tea :twisted: Just got a little bit of dirt and oil on the hands. A little ethyl glycol on the face as well as the hands :lol: oh the torment you must be enduring.

EDIT: DEJA VU! I swear I've said this to you before!

I stopped reading halfway through.

I'm married. I'm married. I'm married.

I should watch my husband work on an engine. That'll cure me. *nod*

I'm ridiculous NO! I'm just a perfectly normal human worm baby. Who is currently angry at the burning sensation of Ethyl Glycol in an open wound. I really hope it isn't that toxic. I'm too stupid to know :lol: Yeah...the "I'm lacking sleep" hyperactivity is starting to kick in. I should have been in bed an hour ago but I'm not. I'm awake hoping my mom will get up in the next two hours so I can fire my engine up and tell her not to let the damn cat in the garage if she doesn't want a dead cat (too much antifreeze on the floor and I can't move the car to get under it with her parked behind the garage)

Right....things I love.....a German engine! (1 of like....2 I like)

RAWWWRRRR I AM NORMAL!


And I find your building of a nitro engine demeaning to myself. Go away. :P
I do like the old engines though. I miss carburetors. XD

Nitro engine? My plan actually involved castor oil based fuel not nitro. I have an intense hatred for nitro due to it's toxicity.

I hate carbs. Passionately!

Praise it!
