I had an interesting drive yesterday picking up parts for a project car, quite local really only 900miles! From Portsmouth to north Glasgow and back lol.

Best of all the a34 was closed so detoured via m25 and a3.

Small clue as to the project in the pic I had made up.

No I'm looking into making a proper 760 turbo intercooler, hence the trip north to collect all the stuff and more to do a 5 pot conversion.

But surely you should be using a T6 lump for that artwork to be right?!

Yep that's what I meant by proper ��

Picked up, white block m90, 960 sump, oil pick up, linkage, mounts, waterpipes,

Additionally, uprated new looking 240 anti roll bar with bushes, shorten 960 sump for 5 pot, another set of water pipes (probably haven't check them yet) another oil pick up, a V70r engine 117k and a set of brand new in box h beam rods.

Enough to fit either 5 or 6 pot to a 240 or 740 if I had another box I could do two conversions.

It is some thing that won't work with you'll need to remove and fabricate new engine mounts and you may bump into difficulty with gear box yes six is better but damm that's a lot of work for one extra cylinder and twin turbo system



Hope it works tho that will be a machine ����
