Title: aluminium or iron?
Post by: billyjones on August 20, 2011, 02:41:40 PM
hi every one, i am interested in building the whole car from ground up and what better place to start than at the engine. just wanted to know what would be best for an everyday runner with the occasional track day/ drift lessons.
 
aluminium or iron (front, intermediate, rear housings?)
 
all comment will be noted and very much appreciated, thanks x

Standard housings, your not doing anything crazy so why waste your time and money?

MMMmmm, alloy housings and that\'s nice.
 can buy one via Racing beat and good products if you are going for circracing/hillclimb...
and don\'t waste moneys on those for drifting/funday.

stay with the mighty irons..
