xmoht Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Has it been done before? I'm looking to do something different. I have no mechanical skills and I'm looking for something that requires no welding or modifications of any kind, also I'm on my P plates. How would this go fitting into the ke70 engine bay? My friends uncle used to work in transport and my friend said steam engines are more powerul than V8s and they do pull trains so it makes sense. Please provide me with an itemised cost list of everything that will need doing thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW42 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 In all honestly why would you take 2 or 3 steps backwards to TRY to make you car faster, and why a steam engine, if you wanna go faster get a commondore or even a falcon, very much faster than a standard corolla, and also P Plate friendly :fuzz:, putting a steam engine into a corolla is like asking can i put a penis in my ass?, the answer is YES! the question is WHY?

Trev Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Just put water in your fuel tank and replace the spark plugs with glow plugs and put 2 650cca batteries in it for cranking. I heard the 4k is bulletproof and won't bend a rod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxyboy55 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 ahh the good old steam engine, i love them! maximum torque from zero revs, yes better than any old internal comustion engine it has been done before in the uk, with a v twin in a mini that made a whopping 40hp with 1500psi of dry steam thats the way to go but if you don't have the skills, don't bother because steam is dangerous estimated cost list: $ashitload Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
