    When I thought this was only about a supercar v8 on a dyno, I had no interest, but when I saw the new thumbnail, my interest went from 0 to 10! I could look at that Lotus GT1 chassis all day. And the Porsche engine was also interesting. Great video!

    Me relating to these car vids. "That engine looks just like a whole sci-fi city from the Bladerunner movie in miniature. I can see where all the flying cars fly into port." Oh to be in my head.

    Stuff legends are made of! X tex and EPS motorsport. It’s would be a dream for gents to run your oil rag over my 6.0liter M119
    Top of the game you lads !

      Is that 6.0 M119 of a R129 SL60 or W124 E60 ? Sounds rare and very spicy 👍🏻

      @@hristohristov8787 it’s 500E base. Had custom pitons made, machined down the counter weights, steel liners, more aggressive cams than E60 and converted from hydraulic to tappet shims. I think it was ten days work to do the valve clearance and DTI timing cams. Up and running know, so next stop is a tune. I understand these gents, resorted and maintained a Sauber C9

      @bernardwarr4187 That sounds amazing and the same time a lot of work,well done 👏 The engine after a proper tune will definitely sounds and performs on another level. Best of luck to you sir and a happy new year

    Two litres of fuel less per lap is a very useful weight saving. Just shows how much better modern engine management is than the fairly primitive systems available even to factory teams in the 1980’s.

    Love what xtec do over there. When you two were sat next to the Lotus, was that an Aston LMP1 2 liter?!

    Those Lotus damper connectors are quite elaborate. Would like to know why they are quite so tall, seems unnecessary. And why would a normal pushrod not work in this chassis?

    Are you listening for knock thru the headphones while dyno tuning or just ear protection?
