Cheers MM

That looks awesome Masive.... I like your work, and actualy I must admit it was photos of your work that inspired me to mod engines... I am still a rookie and do it only for fun.... But anywqys nice work man !

MassiveMods 01-04-2007 10:31 PM

Awesome stuff man , thats a compliment i wont forget ! Any time you want to ask me something please dont hesitate ! But by the looks of your work ill probably be asking you ! lol

Cheers MM

thanks for the compliment... But I have actualy done less motors then I first figured.. I have officialy done 8...well the motor in the picture is number 8....I have been working with engines my whole life, so it come natural to me, I also have steady hands.... But even though it looks pretty I am still a rookie....

But I do have a question about the head button, I have heard about people cutting small tear drops in the button, then taking the squish down real tight...

another interesting this is these STS 30's have 228 degrees open on the crank rortr from factory, 170 exhaust and 112 transfer/boost.... really odd timing IMO

MassiveMods 01-04-2007 11:11 PM

Yeah that is odd timing the transfers would usually be around the 114 to 117 and inlet around 200 , 170 is pretty good for exhaust ...

the 112 deg on the transfer is something you would expect on a smaller engine generally .

Head button geometric de compression is a nice one to play with. there are so many combos to work with , radiating domes with flat pistons or vise versa... flat on flat , dome and dome .. The flash face is something that intrigues me , there is a lot to gain in there.

Sirio2127 01-05-2007 12:59 AM

Hi Mark the gold crank is that one fo your Titanium coated cranks?. If only they could make a clear crankcase to show all the bling off. Regards Jeremy.

MassiveMods 01-05-2007 04:38 PM

yeah we were toying with the idea of having a clear back plate and a mini disco ball inside.. lol

itchy b 01-06-2007 05:29 AM

That would definately rock Massive ;) :lol: :lol:

MRX4-R03 01-06-2007 10:36 AM

IF I MAY ASK WHAT DO YOU USE TOI POLISH THE CRANK, WHAT TYPE OF POLISHING LIQUID IS USED...

MassiveMods 01-06-2007 02:47 PM

Hey MRX

I use Turtle Wax for polishing before pics, it gives a nice finish. But when i do a mototr i dont use any cutting compounds, they can leave a residue that will react with fuel . If a crank is cruddy i use some super fine 800 wet and dry then clean off with kerosine and parrafin oil.

Joe Maxey 01-06-2007 03:17 PM

Sent you a E-mail MM.

Thanks,
Joe Maxey

MassiveMods 01-08-2007 03:21 PM

Got it Maxey ! look forward to it bro !

Old Skool 01-09-2007 10:20 PM

MM, that crank looks like it was titanium-nitrided coated.

MassiveMods 01-10-2007 04:40 PM

Sure was ! it works nice ! smooth and durable and corrosion proof ! With our plating method you get close to an extra 6 to 8 litres on the crank pin before the ti starts to wear. Thats in its break in period so by the time its all gone the pin is still in great shape. We also digitally measure the pin for concentricity and then hone it if its not perfect. Makes for a real smooth motor and real slow pin and rod wear.

Hey here are some piccys of our latest project , Its a shumacker fusion with a CMB motor i completely rebuilt from scratch. The crank and case you see in the above pic is that motor. We will be putting a 1/8 body and wheels on it to get to our goal speed of 111 MPH or 177 KPH we have clocked it at 86 MPH with a modded TT21 and 1/10 scale wheels before we did all the extra gearing work.. The chassis and clutch work was done by Wolf Pack in germany .

Here is a link to the motor on the bench , we are waiting for footage of it on road.. we have tested it but need to reinforce the chassis as its tortion twisting in second and third gear..

Here are some more piccys

rmdhawaii 01-10-2007 04:46 PM

That's a pretty big filter you got there. What are the benefits to running that type of filter versus the standard .12 filter? It's not for a ram air effect, is it?

Thanks for the info. :)

MassiveMods 01-10-2007 05:05 PM

No we have changed to the Button style filter single stage . We will however have a cold intake on the body with an alloy venturi to cool the air.

nitrohead5300 01-10-2007 08:51 PM

The CMB is twisting the chassis?? I have one of the Wolfgang chassis it is made out of some stout stuff that motor must be cranking out some serious horsepower!! Where are you planning to put the braces at??

MassiveMods 01-10-2007 08:59 PM

I dont know , the owner in perth is looking at the chassis, He is mesuring the the front to rear droop to see if its done anything permanent.. It may just be a case of stiffer springs. But its definitely got a lotta poke .. Did you check out the link to the you tube ?

Z00M 01-11-2007 12:44 AM

Hey Mr Mark, I probably forgot to let you know that your fuel won the WA state title in 2006 for 200mm pro sedans! Better to let you know late than never at all! Keep up the great work.

Cheers,

Mike.

Yeah we have a 1/8 lola for it but the WRX looks swwweeet .. My fave car at the moment STI .. Thats a serious technology impact kinda car..

Oh Hey Mike thas awesome dude ! Congratulations ! you going to the vic titles ?

Z00M 01-11-2007 07:49 PM

Unfortunately not. I would love to be racing interstate but with me building a house at the moment, I have no budget to get around. And everywhere is a plane trip from here in WA :flaming:

We are toying with the idea that the second and third changes are in the power band , the engine was designed to deliver very linear response so its hard to change shift points to avoid it, but we could stiffen the rear right shock to compensate, as its a straiglt line dragger its cornering ist as important. What it does is haunch down when it changes on the right and front left lifts.. this may not nessesarily be tortion twisting .. We will see with further experimentation.

hy bro your engine is done ! you have a PM

Joe Maxey 01-22-2007 06:25 PM

Can't wait. You have PM.

Thanks bro,
Joe

Joe Maxey 01-25-2007 07:04 PM

Got the engine today. It looks awsome. I will break it in tomorrow and run it this weekend and will post how it ran and how I finished Sunday night.

Thanks,
Joe Maxey

mrgsr 01-28-2007 03:07 AM

hey Mark

I just wanted to let you know my massive mods modified tz and fuels won the nitro open a final today at whalan reserve!

thanks heaps!
John

rmdhawaii 01-28-2007 11:31 AM

Mark,

Do you mod just parts? (i.e. TZ crankshaft) And how do you feel about putting mod parts in used engines? How about if you don't have the actual engine on hand?

Thanks!
Rainer

Joe Maxey 01-28-2007 12:59 PM

Hey Mark,

Massive Mods X12 walked away with the win in our Lola series pre-race warm-up yesterday. Picked up my best run by 1 lap. Turn a 28 5:06 with a JP t03m and ran a 29 5:03 with a MM X12.

Won by 1 1/2 laps. This MM X12 has unreal mid and top end. It comes off the coner with the best of them and then a mid-range it is just gone( will work on clutch next time to get it off the corners harder). We run a small out door asphalt track (75x45). I would have ran 29 laps if it wasn't for some slower traffic to deal with. Now off to the Regionals for the big test. Will report results soon.

Thanks Mark very much,
Joe Maxey

MassiveMods 02-04-2007 02:18 PM

Hey Maxey !

Thats awesome news man ! Congratulations ! Im sure your driving had something to do with it ! Keep me posted ok !

Cheers !

Hey Hawaii

well its tricky to say, i and most modders like to work on new engines, just to avoid getting blamed for a wornm engine blowing a rod because its on its way out and then has to deal with more grunt.. But most people know thats the risk with older motors. So putting new modded parts in older motors.. well you want to have a modded crank without the sleeve being matched then your not making the most of the engine but it will make a difference..

But i have people send me sleeves and cranks all the time , im happy to cut them up for you !

Cheers MM

[QUOTE=MassiveMods]Hi All

I was asked to post up here to let people know about my services. Ill post some pics of my work.

Dear MassiveMods, ur modification is impressive bro...it definitely spells out power and i mean awesome power..but how much runtime will contribute, as u know i am new in this mod engines and with the current stiff competition, race strategy has becoming more important and runtime has been quite a major issue especially in high level racing...i'd really appreciate if u could give me some feed back on ur mods runtime..TQVM

MassiveMods 02-06-2007 02:26 PM

Is this a loaded qestion ?
