So you have a big engine in an old Bus. What upgrades have you done to the running gear? My Bus is a handful at 100KM/h (60MPH)

HI Daisybay
I have upgraded the brakes to later bay discs and drums. Stopping power is excellent.
The gearbox in mine is an 1800 box with 1600 fourth gear to give it a little bit more legs.
The suspension is in very good condition and I have added Koni shocks up front. Mine is lowered all round.
It feels comfortable at 130km/h

Is that with a Servo fitted? I only ask as we have done the same with no servo. We have fitted the pressure regulator to stop the rear wheels locking.

If you Guys take it easy on the throttle :lol:
What kind of 'Mileage' you getting? I'm thinking about another 'stroker' build 8)

After 3 years and just over 12k miles I can get low 30's mpg on a long run sitting at 65-70 mph.
If I drive it like it wasn't intended it drops to about 10-12 mpg.

Nice in depth post mate, Intresting 8) Yes hopefully it should be a serious grin maker. Mines running a much tighter deck, 30 thou I think and a compression of 10:1.

I bet your combo in a light single cab is fantastic to drive.

I'm still running stick drum brakes :shock: I know.... but reaslically I only do 65-70mph on trips as it's pretty economical and any faster you start to go deaf :lol: As for gearbox I've got a 'built' 002 from the Cogbox. Taller ring & pinion, stock ratio gears which are welded, with all reinforced internals and a super diff. Also run chromoly 'race' drive shafts.

Also lowered with a 6" narrowed king & link pin beam, dropped spindles, adjustable spring plates, tubs and notches etc

I do like how you have used the firewall to mount some of the fuel system - very clever!!

Hi.
I have not got a servo (booster) fitted.
No issues with locking at all.

I've still not driven mine as the restoration has got very in depth :roll:

Had a bit of a spend/re think regarding running gear....

Gonna be running Porsche 944 turbo discs & calipers up front, CSP early bay rear drums with Porsche 5x130 PCD, Porsche gasburner rims and to top it all off an 091 6 rib gearbox which will be rebuilt with a few nice goodies.

 

[Myvanway]

I said I might and I have.... :mrgreen:




Brand new, only been run once and come with a CSP linkage. Red stacks are making way for some polished versions

 

[K@rlos]

Got the tinware re painted and finally got the 48 ida’s and scat-trac manifolds on :mrgreen: Just need to fit the new ceramic coated header and muffler

 

[StuF]

Replaced the 1600 twin port unit running 34ict’s electronic ignition and a VS exhaust with this:

After a bit of cleaning and stripping had this
