RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - sam - 11-12-2013
That noise is insane!! Manifold looks spot on
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Grant - 11-12-2013
Cheers dude
Just ordered a new badge, the old one looked a bit shabby in comparison.
£2 for a domed gel one. Bargainz!
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Just Sean - 11-12-2013

RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Grant - 11-12-2013

RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - sam - 11-12-2013

Whats powering that?
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Piggy - 12-12-2013
so is the v8 fitted yet
oh and its a 205 with 306 front end with 4wd, mid engine, t16
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Rippthrough - 12-12-2013
It's not T16, it's a triple-rotor engine based on RX7 motors, I've got the engine picture somewhere his missus sent me.

RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Grant - 13-12-2013
Not the kind of picture I was expecting when you said his missus sent it
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Grant - 15-12-2013
So no major progress. Painted my air filter to match the rest of the purple, because I am a tart.
Probably going to get ear ache from the kitchen wench when she returns

Plan for the next week or so is to fit the TRE's that are staring me in the face, use aero catches to mount the front bumper and fit brake cooling ductwork from the fog blanks.

I thought this, as it launched off the line, i was all like "wtf?!"....looks like a 306 from the front, but a 205 from behind!
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Pompey306mark - 15-12-2013
Looks 205 with 306 head lights.

RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Grant - 18-12-2013
So a rather good day today
Managed to pick all these up from halfords for the grand sum of........... £24.50
haha![[Image: image_zps31cab725.jpg]](http://s1117.photobucket.com/user/grant-306/media/image_zps31cab725.jpg.html)
Made a start on cleaning up the subframe for seam welding. Disgustingly filthy!
![[Image: image_zps82f79f06.jpg]](http://s1117.photobucket.com/user/grant-306/media/image_zps82f79f06.jpg.html)
And found these at work
Unior 461's![[Image: image_zps49fe9864.jpg]](http://s1117.photobucket.com/user/grant-306/media/image_zps49fe9864.jpg.html)

Part of the seam welded subframe
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Grant - 18-12-2013
Awesome stuff, cheers for posting dude
Got a finished pic? :p
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Tom - 19-12-2013
Does that actually make a difference? Surely that big lump of steel doesnt flex much? Not being negative just curious :p
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - ginge191 - 19-12-2013
Is this actually being made into a v8 project?! I've not read much because as soon as I see ripp talking I feel inadequate !
Some awesome info though!
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Niall - 19-12-2013
Tom you would be surprised how much they flex!
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Piggy - 19-12-2013
If I had a spare subframe I would do that...
i was planning on it but time restraints said no.
There is a stupid amount of gaps in the subframe and a scarey amount of gaps!!
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Niall - 19-12-2013
They are more than adequate as standard but welding it along with a front brace and it will handle so well
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Grant - 19-12-2013
What Niall said. They are only spot welded together. Well I say only. It will stay in one piece fine enough. This dramatically reduces the flex up front as it largely contributes to holding the front chassis legs still during load
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Dum-Dum - 19-12-2013
I saw someone a while back welding a few lengths of cut up ARB or TB to the legs of the sub frame that go up to the front mounting points to strengthen them up and further reduce flex.
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Tom - 21-12-2013
Totally missed the spanner update, was that just with a trade card?
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Piggy - 21-12-2013
So wheres the v8 at?
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - floz123 - 21-12-2013
In my car waiting for him to buy it
you know you want it Grant :p

They're end of line. Discontinued, so reduced to £3, plus my staff discount bought them down further :p

I actually hate this guy. He is always tempting me to spend my money. He knows my soft spots. You should've been a used car salesman haha.
It is a f*cking lovely motor. I have no chance of summoning that money though lol
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Tom - 24-12-2013
Well they were worth buying lol!
RE: Ell Diablo - V8 Engine?? - Dum-Dum - 24-12-2013
You have staff discount at halfords? I thought you worked on a caravan site or summat or are you knobbing someone who works there?
