Got my donor frame.it has Brembo brakes up from I have none so I'll use them they need some work but it will be nice to have the extra stopping power think I may need itπ

Yep , 4 wheel brakes give a bit more security as theres no engine braking , just the desire to keep going when you lift the foot off the throttle :-)

Geeze, that chassis/frame looks suspiciously similar to the old 6041 beast John...different brakes but similar nonetheless.
Smithy.

Made a test cover for the wheel so I can set it throttle position but was unsuccessful because the oil ring on the drive turbine didn't really work when the oil headed up damm π€

Blocked off the oil to the drive and tryed to run it with the break on but it didn't spool up for some reason I have uped the oil pressure to 75psi it was 45 that wouldn't help apart from that could I have to much back pressure in the drive housing?

Hi Aaron
75 psi with cold oil will make it a lot harder to start.
But I'm also concerned about your freepower's "exhaust" , .....................is there a "nozzle" on the end ??
If there is, then remove the exhaust and try
Cheers John

As for the shaft sealing ring the only one I could find doesn't work so I might need to turn one up I was thinking brass might be good for that but not sure how it goes with heat one outher idear I had was to use bleed air to push the oil back up the shaft.
