Dead M20B28... RIP 'Lara Djonggrang' Engine







for an engine that was built in 15 hours on our first debut race (was built overnight to replace the original engine that was blown due to the previous workshop grinding the rocker arm), this 240 HP beast has lasted 45 racing laps, and 56 practice laps...





on low budget amatuer race team like us, we don't really have a spare engine ready, so any blow like this cause us to having to rebuilt again from scratch... what we are lacking in money and resource, we made it up in skills, persistence and hard work...





as i mention on previous post, due to the timing belt tensioner bolt snapped off, now the engine is blown... we took it off the car for further inspection of what we can salvage and planning on what we will do next...














twisted rod














now an attempt to save the head... closer inspection and preparation to fix the head...
