Right guys i havent been posting for a while, as i have been having a mad few months TBH. But i have been plowing on with the 340. I was offered a williams engine for a good price before christmas so have been slowly but surely building and modifying that.
The pictures show how i bought it in components. Engine now has a port matched head and a williams tubular manifold, (not in pics) I have custom made the front cover to show the pulleys, which are soon to be adjustables.
The rocker cover has also been polished by myself. (I may offer this as a service in the offers section if anyone is interested?)
Anyways enjoy the pics.

Ports



Old cover

New Cover







Manifold still to be modded.

Adam , you never fail to amaze , well done mate keep it up

nice work! you've inspired me to get cracking on my engine at the weekend once my cam and bits turn up (I now officially hate customs)

You know Adam is up to something when he goes quite for a while

Nice work there Ad.

Verrryyy nice work mate....

R-Sport though?

Looks proper bo ad! Love the pulley cover! Lee was telling me you spent AGES on that thing right? I love the exposed pulleys! My engines not back together yet, hmmmmm

Anyway it's all about the yellow block not blue block y0'! Lol! Keep up the good work dude!

well the engines from a sporty R enault clio

hi adam

thats sure to be one very amazing car.

can't wait to see the finished project.

well done

jeff

looking good

I was under the impression that the F7R engine had the starter on the wrong side? I'm far from being an expert on the 1.7 family of engines, though!

Great work...that that polished cam cover looks amazing. I'm not often impressed by those (usually due to the design of the cover), but that looks excellent.

Is this for your grey car?

cheers

James

No the starter is on the correct side on all F7R's as far as i know. I did see that myth floating around the forum a while ago.
Yeh this is for my grey one.
Adam

It's still very much floating around.

Do you have a definitive list of which engines do and don't fit? All F7xs, for example? I'd like to compile an article.

cheers

James

Looking very impressive Adam

Nice one, the R is a much more inspiring engine than the P.

As i mentioned in my first post i have a williams exhaust manifold for this engine. Here it is after paint and being wrapped. The manifold has also been ported.
