    Another MONSTER Project

    Not me, just posting the pictures for Stuee69

    His PC is up the chuff

    Just a couple of tasters for now but I think you'll get the idea

    Looks like 2007 is going to be a phenominal year for modifed 200s in the UK with Purplepowers and Bigtones on the way too

    Can you guess what it is?



    A bit more of a clue........

    RB30 with an RB26 head?

    Making the mythical beast that is the RB30DETT

    That should move reasonably swiftly.

    It's going to be a bloody tight fit in an S13 but worth all the effort when it's finished

    I'll try and pop round for some more pics next weekend (the engine is going in today )

    Don't you need an angle grinder to make the bonnet shut afterwards?

    Is the 3.0 block significantly taller than the 2.6, then?

    But it's gonna be sweet as well, though.

    I wonder what happened to Luffy's RB30 project....

    IIRC the engine is 34" tall,

    Bonnet is going to have to be a bit taller and the sump a bit lower (it's already a shorter specced sump)

    The 26 head doesn't fit the 30 block AFAIK (oil & water ways don't align), the 25 head does fit though.

    The RB30 was used in some Holden efforts as the GM lump couldn't meet the emmisions conditions; so I guess that means they are not that rare, as long as you live in OZ.

    Anyway, nice work Stuee, that's going to be pretty cool.

    Wow!

    That's going to be an awesome S13. Really different too.

    I've just been chatting to MeLLoN Stu on MSN,

    Apparently Keith Cowie and Rod Bell are using RB30s too

    Apperently the 30 block can take about 1600bhp and is stronger than the 26 block.

    This has potential of being a rather cool S13.
