400BHP out of 8.5 litres doesn't sound too great to me. I'm sure there's some dax cossies out there with more power (although probably less torque, but what do you expect with an engine a quarter of the size). Seems rather overly heavy too. Certainly wouldn't be my choice, but given that I'm building a BEC, that's not really a suprise.

Remember size doesn't matter it's what you do with it that counts

Errr, OK, can't see the point mind you but there we go eh! As mentioned further up, 400bhp isn't a lot from 8.5l but he probably doesn't need a transmission! It is also definitely a pre-SVA-mobile, no way on Gods earth that intake scoop'd pass

HOW BIG!!!?

I'd say that image is bigger than the output of your engine! Please resize those big boyz before posting!

Everyone always badmouths the SBC pushrod lump as being so antiquated.
But man, it can still put down some power! And it's pretty compact too. And simple. And there are a lot of aftermarket parts.

what's the best way to resize a photo ?


flak monkey - 30/4/04 at 12:27 PM

Photoshop

Stand further a way - The further away you stand the smaller the image becomes.

without packages, use word save as html and extract files from folder created..


sgraber - 30/4/04 at 05:17 PM

resizing images: I use Photoshop CS, but less expensive - I would look at PaintShop Pro. http://www.jasc.com . Very good and inexpensive software.

Back on track, that steering wheel is of a size inversely proportional to the engine.

And as for the car itself, isn't it missing the point of a Seven entirely?

Nowt wrong with a good ol pushrod V8.
I think our 3.5 is a bit more sane in both power, capacity and weight.
I can't see how that much grunt is usable in what it still a pretty light car.
Still, it's better than putting a bike engine in a Cobra replica!!

What's up with the roll bar on that? It seems to be about 6 inches high and leaning back.

suprised i'm not

To resize an image open it in paintbrush and go to select all, then image and stretch/skew, then resize it to, say 50%. It might be abit grainy but im sure its ok for posting on here, and paintbrush comes with windows!
