Another +4" chassis question
mark_UK - 7/11/04 at 09:31 PM

I`ve decided to go for the mcsorley +4 chassis as I like my elbow room.I reckon the chassis will be plenty wide enough for the cologne v6 I`ve got, but what about height?I`m going to use the mechanical injection that came with the engine and looking at it dangling from the end of the engine crane it looks quite a tall set up,anyone else with a v6 had any problems?

Most of the Locost V6 installations I've seen have had cutouts in the bonnet to clear the injection plenum.

B4 you go any further with the V6 you have; do you know what it weighs?

I suspect it's all steel, and will weigh nigh on 300kg's - 60% of the weight of most locosts!

Just a thought to bear in mind
