Fantastic idea!!! Love it!

just to put some minds at rest regards payment. Phil has some family matters which he's dealing with right now. As such, Phil and I haven't had chance to sit down and do a list together which is the reason I've asked for names on this topic. No payment or forms have got lost! Between Phil and I we have them all it's just we've not been able to compile a 'master list' of names and I need to get a feel for numbers attending so other things for the weekend can be arranged. Sorry for any worries.

always 1 plonker! last minute entries still welcome.....shall I put your name down Chris?

I've heard rumours that Keith + co have a wedding and may come for 1 of the days but not entirely sure...

any more name to add? numbers are looking a bit low 1) Phil Shelton + 5 2) Stuart Thomas +1 3) Derek Overfield +1 4) Kerry Allen +1 5) Kirsty Marsh + 2 6) Andrew Wilkinson +1 7) Al Richey Nick Tullett +1 9) Dan Elliot +2 10) Dino +4 11) Ivan + 3 12) Frazer 13) Ken Wilcox 14) Disco Si +1 15) Emma + 2 16) ivan farrington 17) Ozz +2 18) Richy +1 19) Andy +2 20) Chris tractor

Nice one Rich, top-notch work job as always mate! Hope the hubs were okay?

your coming to derbyshire and here its a bl00dy cob...get over it and please get your names down on this thread with the number of people you're bringing if you're coming or intend to come....

my exmo wet weather gear and windscreen were both sold to another member who fitted them onto his 2b without issues....so I assume they are the same

A burger van has been arranged for the weekend.....here is what they have to offer;

I appreciate forms have been sent in etc....but I'd like to start a list of names here of those who have sent in forms and those who plan to attend but have yet to send the form......Just trying to get an idea of attendance figures; 1) Phil Shelton + 5 2) Stuart Thomas +1 3) Derek Overfield +1 4) Kerry Allen +1 5) Kirsty Marsh + 2 6) Andrew Wilkinson +1 7) Al Richey Nick Tullett +1 9) Dan Elliot +2 10) Dino +4 11) Ivan + 3 12) Frazer 13) Ken Wilcox 14) Disco Si +1 15) Emma + 2 16) ivan farrington Can you please comment below with your name +?.......and also if you've sent form or still to send form and I will update the list above. Cheers

Oi!!! 3.9 I'll have you know

Guessing the power output is somewhat difficult. Based on previous charger projects; 1.8 standard mazda engine ran an Eaton M45 charger, produced 7psi of boost and produced 230bhp The charger on this project was virtually brand new and had coated rotors around 1.9 pulley ratio Canems ECU 2.0 standard zetec blacktop engine ran an Eaton M62 charger, produced 6.5psi of boost and produced 200bhp. The charger on this project was well used and the rotors were not coated. around 2.1 pulley ratio Omex ECU (from memory) This project; 2.0 Zetec silvertop which has already been modified (cams etc...) The charger on this project is in much better condition than the other M62 charger, but not as good condition as the M45 was in. The rotors are not coated. around 2.3 pulley ratio Canems ECU So in my opinion; The 230bhp Mazda engine charger project exceeded estimations because the charger was in such good / new condition and also had coated rotors. The 200bhp blacktop zetec under-performed because the charger was pretty used and the rotors didn't seem to seal as well as others I've seen. The silvertop Zetec..........the charger is in good condition, albeit not coated rotors. It has a higher pulley ratio which should help produce a bit more boost and also the engine has been tuned up....the optimistic side of me sees no reason why we should be around 270bhp......but in reality, I would say around 250bhp is a good target figure for this project

Bailey performance advised (from their own experiences) that the 2.0ltr zetecs could be boosted to 10-11psi on standard internals and no decompression plate without problems. These eaton chargers produce around 7-8psi so comfortably within that limit.

Yep! Give yourself a gold star and smiley face!!! By pure luck, I can rotate the tensioner (swap pivot point and fixing point end-to-end) and problem solved itself!

Anyone see the obvious mistake (excluding the S.yorks guys who I told last night)

opportunity to put some miles on the exmo's newly built engine.....so should be there

It all squeezes in the stylus tho!!!

OIC....My mind is too pure for acronyms like that

FWE?...

Oops. Forgot to update this for while.....charger and alternator now bolted to engine....

Rich, we are given the gate keys for the weekend so can let you out providing you can guess the right password....... It just the venue doesn't want the gates leaving open overnight

Shower blocks have been hired for the weekend

pm'd

I've ran out of likes!! I found a girl who lets me build superchargers on the kitchen table, doesn't moan about 30+hours a week in the workshop on top of a 55hr a week job and then joins me on the committee of the club I hold dearly.....marrying her was the most sensible decisions of my life! Thank you for all the messages and we both had a fantastic day!
