Some "in between"pictures:
Can't start yet, low battery.. -
What news, old fellow? Have you had a chance to "fire that mother up"?(Quote from Charlie Daniels' Uneasy Rider, listen to it it's hillarious!).
I SO want you to succeed with this project! This is probably the best thing to happen to the E31/M70 in the last 17 years!!!
Regards,
M.R. -
Thanks, I do also..
We have connected the oilhoses wrong, now the chain has broken and we must change this motor with a new one.
We have done some work on it already, tomorrow the old motor goes out, monday the nwe in, we hope that we can start to drive before the end of the week.
I've do a little fotoshow on: http://www.clube31.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=807

Thanks Jason.
Was by the dealer, motor is disconnected but not swapped yet(was not easy as it seems), monday they will swap it, than we can put all the chargerbits in the car again. -
Hurry up with the next installment DickB There are more people out here who can't wait to see your efforts rewarded
I for one would love to see and hear this beast on the road!!!! make it soon please -
Hello Steve,
Tomorrow we will install the chargers again, hopefully it will start and run as we hope....
This week it should run and I will make a video than....
Cheers.
Dick -
Car is running...
Just a few little things as covers for the multibelt, little adjustments, painting some things, a.s.o., but basicly its running again with a new motor and it sounds good!
Have a little film to let you see it:

Congrats Dick,
the video we all want to see is the one where you are cruising at 60kph alongside a regular 850, and then you both 'floor it' at the same time
I have a strong feeling your car will be the second smiley !!
-
Glad you're up & running once more Dick Hope all goes well
[Bloody hell & heres me thinking my 1 Supercharger sounded noisy] ah well thats the price you pay I supose [ to be faster than all the rest]
-
Nice one Dick I look forward to seeing it when its all done
-
Thanks Tony, I must run it for a few 100k to see if all goes well, than I'll think we must make that film...
Thanks Steve, I'll think we have got the bad things out the system now, but I'm still a little bit afraid we got more troubles, but perhaps this time we got it all right.
Yes, it's the price you pay to got rid of all that annoying Porsches, Lambo's, etc.
Will do Wayne! -
Noggie,
I am surprised you have not gone for an ESS kit - (Norwegian company). http://www.esstuning.com. Tried & tested with 2yrs warranty and no engine mods required. -

That is because they don't have a kit for the V12, only the V8, and not even the 840, but the 740. doubt the kit would fit a 840 due to differences in the engine bay.
Ess has said that they will not develop a kit unless 10 people commit to buying their charger..... guess I'm short 9 people
I am well aware of this company, and I have even been there looking at the place, a friend of mine has a 330ci with their kit, and it produces 360++hp.
I will buy a e46 M3 as a daily driver soon, and there just might be installed a 550hp ess charger kit into that car.
