I dont understand how you have 2K subscribers, the camera angles are amazing and so i the quality and sound, this is premium work you deliver my guy, youll be famous in no time
Wow, thank you!
It’s beyond me as well. This man is a legend.
could watch your content all day,those cut out are different,keep up the video's😎
I look forward to these updates and videos so much. It’s so awesome seeing the pinto getting so much love
First thought that popped into my mind when I saw that oil pump rotor, man isn’t that small for a race engine. When you showed the new one that made much more sense :-)
Excellent content🎉
Really keen to see that on the dyno and what figures it puts out. awesome work....Im building a mk1 escort for my son and we have an old pinto and 5 speed for it. your videos are really helpful mate.
You gotta love a Bridgeport
Very nice work and video 😊👍
Master at work 👍
looks like your pistons are nicely proud, should go well
they Are 0.020" out the top of the block, the old ones were machined down and ran flush with a very thin head gasket, this time because of the deeper valve cutouts i didn't machine them down and will use a thicker head gasket, but it all works out about the same
Amazing
!!!!
I’m tempted on sourcing a 205 block and an appropriate cylinder head for my 72 Pinto Halfhatch instead of using a 2.3Lima Turbo motor.
However, that means I’d have to source one from the UK…that could be expensive I’d imagine.
to be honest your probably better off and it will be cheaper to talk to Esslinger or racer walsh about uprating your 2.3

I'm going to consider that some good advice. Thanks.
many consider the lima to be better
@Kevin Forster
I just didn't want to have a motor in my car that didn't exist in its time.
I could get away with a 289/302 for period-correct swaps.
The car is all original except for its Maverick rear end, 70's era US Mags and lowered. The way my late uncle made it in the 70's when I was a kid.
My 76 had a built 2.3
What rod ratio are you running with 86mm stroke 1.6 just wondering as I’m thinking is use the std crank and offset the big end for Honda b18 rod size 42mm and rod c-c is 138mm
1.52 but dont get too hooked up on rod ratio in the real world it makes next to no difference
👍👍👍💪👏👏👏
May be I missed it in previous vids but how is the capacity of 2.3 acheived
93mm bore 86mm steel crank = 2337cc
@@PenguinMotors love watching this youst to play around with this engine serving my time but never had access to the equipment or know
