The Mégane II Owners' Club

Though I would give you an insite into how a 'proper engine' works.

The turbos on top are my invested interest...

I had to go down the Daventry engine plant to day. To sort out a design problem with the V band. (Holds the orientation of the compressor housing) Anyhow thought I'd take a few pics to show my fellow MOC'ers what a 'proper' engine looks like!

Lets start....

Raw engine block fresh in from casting..







Into the mill..







Now this is tool selection!!..





Finished block



Like a fine lady pooling down her top...





Pistions (dog legged for less stress)..







Pistons in housing



Valves...



Assembly





Now this is a torque wrench!



Fitting fly wheel (before/after)



Rejections



A look down the line...



Now the turbos...













More rejections...



Nice...



Injectors..



Test bed...





Paint...



The finished product..









Now thats what i call power...



Sort of puts a 2/3L engine in perspective!

P
