Parts Info

Postby Tojiero » Thu May 10, 2012 12:23 pm

Anybody know a good parts comparison or benchmarking site where I can get dimensional info on stuff like engines, gearboxes, radiators, brake discs, calipers, and wheels. Specifically, at the moment I'm looking for a radiator less than 700mm wide and about 450-500mm tall for a large capacity V8. Any Suggestions anyone?

Do you mind telling us which car do you drive? I know a website that has information related to engines but only related to kia and hyundai cars. You could even Google stuffs like that for individual cars. I am sure you will find what you're looking for.

700mm x 500mm - that's tight.
Even with block hugger exhaust manifolds 700mm tight.
500mm high? Crazy tight, what ever you end up with I'm pretty sure you'll need a dry sump. Probably need to go coil pack ignition and a custom ultra low profile inlet manifold too.
Can you have a bonnet bulge?

BUT I'm hoping some one will prove me wrong on this.

Whether it be fast road, track-day or grass roots motorsport you’ll find it in PPC. Our editorial team is headed up by well known editor Will Holman. Will has a deserved reputation for his ’stick a V8 under the bonnet’ attitude to life and has had (and crashed/ had stolen/ rusted away) enough cars to fill a monthly magazine on his own. His editorial team is stacked with experience with the likes of Dave Walker (speciality engine management), of the sadly-missed Car and Car Conversions magazine, David Vizard, the legendary engine tuning guru, and Kevin Leaper (speciality buying cars in pubs) – ex technical editor of Practical Classics.
