Forgot to mention the price. !!!

.If you spend $5.00 a day on your lunch then Twink is a 50% discount on that .

I wont give him away because it really is a valuable dog.

sorry Mike, have 3 Boxers allready
(not counting the 2 kombi vans---boxer donks :-) )

& Anto,,,that "Bloke" in the US is a rather large engineering company & so far has pulled over 300hp out of the later 1200cc K bike,,,awsome!!! & that`s where MoreSpeed in England has based his twinky projects power outputs from, i really don`t think he`s going to achieve "THAT" much from his mini donks for a long while tho, I`m aiming at 150-180 at the moment with "HOPES" to gain more as more money & time come to hand.


But still , where there`s a will there`s a way i say :-)

cheers all,,,i`m off to bed,,,have to race state Down Hill race tomorrow :-) RUSH FACTOR YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sleep now :-)

Don`t think i can afford to get to Bathurst (this year), was going to try tho, but it don`t look good (unless i sell my truck--->HINT HINT) :-)

& 150-180(ish) is the plan for the moment, with thoughts of over the 200mark at a later date & i have no doubt that we`ll get there, it`s all just time & money really, the homework is all done & the specs say it will happen, just need some more "goodies" & more R&D on the dyno to get the job done.

& the Bottom end handling it all????????? well,,,we`ll just cross that broken bridge/crank IF & WHEN we come to it....when you think about it, there`s been so many people "TELL" me over the years that my 1510cc crank won`t last @.080" undersize bearing journals, well 8 years on & copping an absolute thrashing it`s whole life with 85horsies @ the wheels & 7500rpms almost all the time, race meets nearly every 2 weeks of it`s life with 2 mad drivers going at it all day each event, then a full weeks 2000kms Fangin at Targa Tassie Rally & even more club events after that, & it only needs rings & bearings & it`s back together again is proof of the pudding (so to speak & touch my woody) :-)

so,,,the next Bimmer twinky is also now well under way --->1170cc, short stroke, large journal, screamer & will cop ball bearing turbo, 10,000 rpms & 25-30lbs of boost,,,now that one we`re going to wind it up till it goes "POP" , then re-build it & just back off the boost a tad.

who said i was mad??? :-) ,,,dam, the alloy V8 mini is going to be tame in comparison :-)

Video of the start up on the floor is herer--->

http://www.eengoedidee.nl/parsefiles/?type=freerunning&filename=bimmertwinkyfirstrun.wmv

& before anyone says anything,,,yes the ign timing is a bit retarded (pretty much like me)

& the fuel isn`t quite right as the computer i`m using is straight from a toyota 1800cc twin cam 20 valve that i built for another fella.

The entire power unit package is presently going into one of my old scabby cooper "S"`s & will get the full turbo & Autronic engine management system once the Monaco fastback is ready to accept it all

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so,,,what you all think?????????????????????? :-)
