worked OK for me - looks and sounds.... well.... monster :P

A "stroker" is a longer throw crankshaft, which increases the piston stroke and so gives a bigger capacity - which is obviously NOT what you were thinking :winky:

very nice vids, I like the sound :)

[kev dood]

oh my gosh.

That was worth the wait. Wicked wicked sound.

Had half the office round the screen!

Bees and knees springs to mind.

[Bazza-old]

perhaps we can have a big group thank you to mark and his colleagues at TDI

who gave up there lunch hours to start the monster up for all of us to listen to

how many garages do you know who would give up their lunchbreaks ,spend time pushing a vehicle to outside and then spending time in starting it up for a forum

(dialogue from video)

"is this going on the forum"

"yes if you dont mind"

"if i had known i would have done my hair"

[Zee007]

How are things progressing Mark..........?

[tdiplc]

Hey Zee,

We have decided upon the size of turbo we are going to use (it's a bit Secret Squirrel at the moment), together with all of the other parts and engine management etc that we need to get where we want to be. These are on order and we will make further progress when they arrive.

We have decided to retain the standard engine until Mat's wallet has recovered, and then do the business inside.

The Monster will be dormant for a while until the bits arrive.

Mark :)

[Monster-Mat]

well ive planned a couple of Heists.........

Mark have a look at this.....which and what are your thoughts..Oh CLICK HERE

[Fidgits]

So any news Mark?

Have you managed to hook up an exhaust? (rather than the side pipe?)..

Steering? Prop-shaft??

Looking forward to finding out more about the secret squirrel turbo..

Not a lot going on at the moment. We will probably get the multi plate clutch installed this week.

The propshaft has turned out to be a bit of a drama but that should be resolved soon.

The exhaust will be amongst the last things that we do. It will need to be a hand made jobby :o

I could tell you about the turbo, but you do know that I woulkd have to kill you :)
