Diesel Kit Car Ep9 - Scotland Roadtrip
Pump change and exhaust before the roadtrip. Not much footage of the roadtrip itself and the Applecross footage was wobbly due to the solid mount camera. Would mount to helmet if I did it again! Spelling mistake in the captions but cba to edit/reupload!

Diesel Kit Car Ep8 - Austerity engine
Просмотров 4,2 тыс.7 лет назад
After my last engine died I decided to buy a donor with a good engine and swap that over. I'll get it back on the road for summer, and then I'll build up an engine with forged rods later in the year. Vegetable oil ftw.

I moved house recently. I've gone from having a small single garage to having a small single garage with better lighting. Thought I'd sort out better work surfaces. Quite dull, but I haven't made a video for a long time so just getting back into it.
I believe you may be in the wrong lane

The stench of burning oil pleased our nosies so it did, so we stayed behind. We pulled over and pushed their car into a nearby lane and waited til a family member came to their aid.

Diesel kit car Ep2 - Supercharger mounting
Darn small
Hello, did you adapt gearbox or did you find one that fits?
I saw your video posted on a 200tdi engine forum where you offered to answer LDV pilot questions. I have a 1967 Morris LD ambulance which I want to make a bit more driveable. I am interested in a 200Tdi engine for its simplicity and torque characteristics, but I don't want the 4wd. Am I right in thinking that a LDV Pilot has a 200TDI engine and the landrover gearbox without the transfer box? If so that would make my life a lot easier. Many thanks
What a crock of shit
So's your face 😃🤷🏻♂️ Having seen and been in this car, can say it's well built, loads of useable torque, gr8 on fuel, and ruddy good fun. Also something a bit different, which is always interesting
This is only the second ever diesel 7-esque I've ever encountered, the other was a Sierra 2.3D Vindicator. I don't mean to sound critical but your long gear lever is somewhat ungainly given it's not a sequential type. I case you think I'm an armchair critic I've built 4 of them.
Hi what gearbox did you use and did you need a conversion plate or bell housing
Interresting the mpg of this diesel caterham
The only time I've measured ,with mixed driving ,saw 46mpg. That was with a binding brake and the diff ratio was too high. 50+ will be easily achievable
What options can a isuzu dmax 3l turbo deisel to change the turbo for a supercharger.
Well done, great video. Thanks for sharing mate. 👍👍👍
That intro........ :-D
Can you provide the dimensions?
woop woop comercial veichals class ??????? the caddy mk1 pd is comeing out next year
What blower ?? Td04?
Me at 21:46 secs. Felt faster than it looks. :0)
interesting shit, cheers man
Awsome video, deserves more Views
Hey Ben, you caught me drifting at 32:25! Would you be ok with me downloading the clip to put on my FB and instagram?
MattyWestside no probs at all :)
Woo, my car at 43:59
Great video. Really went in depth.
Definitely need the high rpm Spring removing from the govnor and a t28 late spooler that would howl
Dave would be proud of the TMIC!
Where's episode 1 to 7?
James Ladbrook last one was about a year ago i think, all on my channel
Ben Green Ahh I'll have to have a look. p.s. Love the intro music
James Ladbrook haha thanks. i used a website called ujam or something similar. i made the theme by whistling the melody into a 99p mic and then tweaking it on their editor. the aim was for it to be as cheesy as possible
Ben Green nice. reminds me a bit of the post apocalyptic inventors intro lol
first!
Ben I actually completely did not know this video existed !!!
david667766 haha it's a classic!
My old vw beetle, coughing and farting up the hill at 46:00.
Looks good Ben was that a dick you were drawing in the rust hahahahaha
Well unfortunately some footage went missing so I guess we'll never know! haha
great video did you go this year????
Sadly I didn't make it this year, I managed to get tickets to syston park speed trials which clashed with RR
FUCKIN WANKA
How you getting on with it? just watched all 7 episodes. How did you size up your supercharger for the compound setup? I'm looking into doing a compound setup on diesel Volvo. I've done a few calculations and a reasonable pressure on the turbo and a good intercooler should be good for about 58% air density pre-Super Charger but then thats at a high temp so would scew the compressor map for the Super charger? how are you working the maths?
Haha, "unbelievable"!
lol
can you link the parts please :)
+Ákos “Stahlkopf” Kováts It's the motor, speed controller, throttle, seat and charger from an invacare electra scooter. The chassis is just angle iron, the wheels are from sack barrows, steering column is what I had to hand (daewoo musso in this case)
yeah, do you have ebay link or places to buy those, because i dont know exactly what to buy... :S
Google it.
This lot is like Scrap-Heap Challenge.....!
why not supercharger? yours was one of the few superchargered videos i found...
+borisdarkangel it is still being supercharged, I just took it off while I was sorting out the head gasket :)
Never mind I found it. International Dirge by engineers
What's this song please?
What's this song please
Haha whoopsie!! what had actually happened to it?
+david667766 we saw whisps of steam, combined with the oil smell. HG had failed in a big way. Engine bay was splattered with oil and water.
Holy shit fucking awesome!
Ulrich Schnauss in the background. Nice
+Nino Auricchio Good ear!
Haha, your on wow too :)
Re watched and added handy shortcuts: 2:05 Dave sets fire to his hand 4:23 Dave makes sparks
HAHAHA I never even noticed that I set fire to my hand!!
@18:50 giving it the beans!
What boost level did you set the twin charge diesel at in the end. As yours is the same capacity engine as mine, I'm looking to calculate what pulley size I need to set the engine up with.
A straight six, that must have been a torquey beast. Good job the long bonnet then.
Good to see it running, What's hiding under the odd shape bulge now? How does it pickup on acceleration on the straight roads? The wind noise was drowning out the SC whine
Hi Pete, this is an older vid when there was no S/C. The bulge was from when it had the volvo straight six lump in there, that bonnet has now been chopped about a lot. At that time, it was on a standard XUD turbo (K14 or T2, can't remember at which stage this was) and it picked up really nicely but was still fairly low on power.
In respect to supercharging only That is true, although if boost pressures were identical, would it really be that sluggish? The SC removes the 0-2750 rpm lag then would appear the same to the block upto max rpm. If it were turbo only then you would have a boost defecit upto 2750 or thereabout
I wasn't really thinking of twin charging like you had done, although it has been mentioned. My primary route was to ditch the turbo in favour of the supercharger. But finding any info on supercharged diesels is sparse unless you look at the big Detroit muscle diesels What volvo straight 6 was it. And what diesel block is in the kit car?
Yeah if my kit car was supercharger only it wouldn't be that quick at all. Volvo block was a B6304 and in the kit car now is an XUD9TE from a Peugeot 806 (with a tata loadbeta cylinder head)
It's an interesting noise with the supercharger in the background, the 2-1 off the back of the turbo gives a nice burble. Good luck in mot
