Caterham Cosworth Build

[10speedbird]

I wanted to share with you the beginning of my Caterham X-flow to Duratec Build. I'm going to be documenting the process and here is the first of the videos from that build.

Nice video! I will follow this build!
I did something on the same lines, swapping an Xflow with a Dura in my S4. Unfortunately didn't have all those nice bits from a CSR...
I made a project thread here: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=105...

PS: nice move dodging that deer!

Finally started the engine pull from the 2.3 Duratec Ford Ranger. Things should start moving along a little quicker now! I also have most of the parts ready to go and the next few months look like I'll be in the Garage more of the time. I'll try and post 2 or more videos a week from here on out.

Here is the fist Official work commencing video!

Could live without the adverts myself, but guess that's why you want us to subscribe?

Sorry about the ads! I'll try and reduce them. Youtube places them if you monetize the videos! (I have to try and fund the build somehow! lol)

I'm hoping my skills as a film maker will improve I know the videos at this point aren't that riveting.


Here is Day 2 of the build.

I'm going to try and post 1-2 videos a week as I continue through. The main reason I'm documenting the build is for exposure to assistance and help should I need it.

Thanks for watching! :-)

Noted, but understand that documentry filming in the USA differs a lot from the way the european do it. USA typically uses a lot of talking heads where as the european style shows more of the actual action with narration on the background. I prefer the european style much better for entertainment. I'm more interested in seeing a build of a cosworth engine not your face or a five minutes drive down to the workshop with a talking head.

I'll have Day 4 uploaded tomorrow as well. Day 4 is more exciting as I'm installing Valve springs and getting some work done!

Day 5 of the Cosworth Build. Removed the Valve (Cam) Cover and the Front timing cover on the old engine and checked over some of the internals.

Just install U-block origin onto your browser... no more ads

Doesn't help the OP I know, but I wouldn't be able to watch youtube with all those ads.
