    I know, I was quiet shocked the first time I saw it too. I think the stop/start stuff is the real killer. When there is airflow through the bay it’s not horrendous but stop and heat soak does it’s thing. It takes a lot of cold air to suck that much heat out of such a large alloy chunk :(

    Yeah I see it with the Blower engine, if it’s small throttle openings it’s usually up there…

    Heat soak is a good reason as to why the MAT sensor should be placed in the correct position also.

    Today End! 

    Went down and made a mount for my Phone and Data Logger/Tune tool, all within reach and not blocking anything else, also got a bunch of Monaro parts ready to clean up and paint so they don’t look like arse on the new engine!

    Not such a bad idea, we get 2 laps then they change the track layout, came close to going the wrong way a couple of times!

    Nice stuff Ian. Where at? What’s the racing calendar like. Obviously plenty of dates given you built a dedicated track car

    Swapped the LSD Disc brake rear end in as the 1/2 a car Surplus is being collected tomorrow so figured while I was sorting alll the parts the Drum rear end may as well go back!

    They really got the lines of the coupe around the back window/turret spot on I reckon.  Beautiful.

    Today!

    Had a few things to sort this morning, also had a play around with the Tune and dialled some of the TRAC out in case I feel it’s needed as it was slamming the throttle shut before so I’ve been running with it “Off”. Loaded ready for tomorrow, I’ll go down after lunch and do a few things on the Monaro so I can get it back on the Go Jacks.
