A tour of the GT6 race car engine bay , part 1. Visit https://thevintageline.com for the copper nickel brake line kits that I mentioned in the video. I will be adding part 2 of this video next week.
My friend and I built this vintage race car over the course of several years. It may have been raced in Canada when it was new, but I have very little information about it's history.
The engine was built to be reliable so that we could sort out the car on track. It could certainly make more power by increasing the compression ratio and doing a few other things. It has been very reliable so far. I drive a street GT6 and I can tell you that there is no comparison between the stock engine and this one. This engine revs very freely and is still making power up to the rev limiter (7000 RPM). This is due to all of the work done on the head, the exhaust header and the weber carb setup.
