Mind Blowing

I frequently browse through various cool blogs and websites regarding car stuff..
That is when i stumbled across this mind blowing info on Speedhunters..

According to them..
This engine..


Is a hand built billet V8 producing around 800hp (basically an F1 engine)..
While most of us think that the amount of horsepower is more than enough to be abused..
The fine piece of art is going to this..


AS A FUEL PUMP!!
The Bloodhound SSC landspeed record car use it to deliver 1 tonne (yes, a fucking tonne) of high test peroxide to the rocket motor in 22 seconds at 1200 psi..
It will go from 300 mph to over 1000 mph in a little over 20 seconds..

I SHIT YOU NOT!

Oh and stay tuned for the upcoming post..
It`s a review of a bodyshop which is owned by a good friend of mine..

Expansion Tank

So after i did my tubs, the stock expansion tank kinda just chillin there..
Like so..


Which looks like shit..
And i wanted to do address this issue for so long..

Being cheap and all, i came out with this..


Oh don`t you worry technical nerds..
There`s a hose going to the bottom of the tank on the inside from the fitting..
And there`s a small hole i drilled on the other side as breather..
If that make sense..
Whatever..

Placement wise..
I kinda tucked it on the chassis rail by the radiator..
Like so..


Tadaaaa!!
No more shit fuck tank..

After i did this, i feel the urge to upgrade my radiator as well..
Currently my cooling setup consists of s14 2 layer rad, stock clutch fan, no thermo..
Temps are good so far..
But a bit more bling wouldn`t hurt..

KOYO..
Nom nom nom..
