Here is the SIMCA. four speed, rear engine, slant push rod water cooled 1118cc 4 cylinder

First is the Chevrolet. right now it has a .60 over 283 cu in small block and a 3 speed manual. I have built a megasquirt computer, a custom mild steel intake, and a single turbo setup (liberated from a 7.3l ford powerstroke). more on this later

welcome!

I have started this blog in the interest of documenting some of the ideas, inspirations, and creations that I have. Primarily I want this blog to explore all kinds of concepts for enhancing and hopping up the cars that I have, and to learn how to use scientific method to prove a concept.

The vehicles that I will use as platforms for experimentation are a 1957 chevrolet 210 townsman wagon, 1969 SIMCA 1118 and a home-built 50cc drag-style bike. These are all radically different from a layout point of view, but are similar in the fact that they all have 4 stroke gasoline engines and manual transmissions
