hey!!

Thinking about a build for the near future
its going to be a 3 banger 4 stroke in a ........ chassis?
first i though of a doo?? but theres a lot of those around........ then i thought of a poo box....... ( but there total crap in my eyes) ............. and leaving it in the stoke chassis is going to be TOO heavy for what im planing! So last but not least..... 07 cat??

Now my question is. would it look kindda dumb? like with a rather LARGE 3 cylinder crabed turboed motor in it????

im kinda thinking 174" track, VE inc tunnel, racers edge skid, simmins gen 3 skis, BD turbo kit, etc etc? what do you guys think?


TG cheers

I know your looking at a cat chassis, but heres a new built rev chassis for a steal of a deal. Would cost you way more than this to build.

thanks!! yeah that is a SWEET A$$ sled!! im only trying to put an idea down on paper..... !!!

I like the idea of an M... I looked at them.. they would work awsome with a vector motor.. the way the rx1 motor is shaped.. might be a hassle.. but anything can be done.. I just feel like the shape of the gas tank might be an issue for turboing... but who knows.. that could just because im used to looking at the laydown motors in it.....

thanks Ski-Dooin it...... any other pointers guys?

 

[meakin46]

you could always make up fuel tank like the one impulse uses if the M series one was in your way

 

[Thunderguy BOOSTED]

thats a really good point meakin46 !! like im talking a really really good idea!!!

I believe Ratsled put a boosted RX-1 in a M Sled

I thought they did too but i looked and all i saw was a Rev with a Rx1 in it??

 

[Wheel House Motorsports]

yeah.. he did a rev with a propane rx1... I know C3 did an apex in a carbon M... looked SWEET>..

again, the gas ank would be my big worry, hard to get the turbo behind it with the tank so close.. but could put the turbo on top of the motor and it should work out alright.

Yeah...... but i like what meakin46 suggested with the impulse tank....!! cause that just might work!!!!
ill see what happens though...... will be easy to see after the engines in the chassis!!!!!!!!!!!!! It might have to wait till spring though..... cause if i buy stuff out of the US, i will be in really bad shape with the shipping and CAN customs!! ( we're going down there to pick up a jet boat) ( idk though) all depends on what parts i can find in canada!!!!!!! if i could get the chassis and the engine here in canada.. i could get the rest of the parts shipped to a buddy of mine and pick them all up when i go down there.....................
