1000HP from S54

Post by exdos » Sun Sep 02, 2018 11:37 am

I've recently come across some interesting videos about uprating the S54 engine here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRAnBgQ ... gs=pl%2Cwn
If you've got 3/4 of an hour to spare, the four part videos are worth a watch to see how the OEM engine can be improved some more. :thumbsup:

If you go onto the publisher's channel there are lots of other interesting vids too.

When I see what tolerances our machines are built to, leaves me speechless every time.

Such a shame to hear they folded

My little blue zed is in lots of bits. With lots of things started and not many finished! I may have found the limits of my time and ability!!

The amount of skill and knowledge that guy Brian has is crazy. Some very expensive looking, insanely accurate equipment in that workshop too!
