Jan 13 2008-update on first poste -Green machine, high boost rice
Well I told u all I blew the bitch up :'( with a ---- tone of boost and a lot of tire smoke (and no oil because of a clogged oil pickup)
Well I had the TT rods resized New block and re filled bored out 30 over decked perfectly flat micropolished crank notched block all new race bearing speced out for each pleace in the engine, nothing standard all precision And friday the new custome made 9.0:1 flat top JE pistons just showed up. The bottem end will be together this week, now I have to decide whaqt Im going to do with the head. I think it will just be a stock rebuild with new valves and springs. [http://size=20pt]----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/size]http://www.youtube.com/v/bJPg-xqyW40" this is the sticker it came with its ------- awsome http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/2521/dscf0022wo0.jpg then this is the new turbo http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/6507/dscf0014vc7.jpg and then this is the mani its going on http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/2407/dscf0023xx2.jpg :6update ok well some up date picks here after doing all this stuff to the bottem and I took the head into school to clean it up. After that I was looking at it a figured if I have pulled it apart to clean it I might as well do the valve seals, but If I do the valve seals I might aswell do a full valve job? So now am waiting for a head gasket kit. Acura wanted 7.86 or that a peice(X 16), ---- that. Kit off ebay comes with full head gasket set(including valve seals)for 50 shiped. http://img133.imageshack.us/img133/7781/dscf0069if4.jpg on top of that I was able to weld the steel to the cast housing some exspensive rods. pre-heated areas, welded, place fire blanket over after to keep the heat in. work perfect and bolted back to the turbo. befor http://img262.imageshack.us/img262/5310/dscf00101dx.jpg after http://img133.imageshack.us/img133/223/dscf0070qk2.jpg will make a nice mandrel 3" downpipe with the matching flange http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/3101/dscf0073gj3.jpg and the filled block http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/1127/dscf0072hn7.jpg march 26 update got my pro seal rings today aswell as my new tail lights http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/1135/dscf0079dt6.jpg http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/6650/dscf0080hl0.jpg update apr 20 engine is together now! :6 had to cut out a ---- load of block and even shave the turbo to make the Mack truck turbo fit and still keep the full size rad but we did it! hopefully will have it in the car next weekend and on the street in 2 or 3 weeks http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/1355/dsc00012vc2.jpg http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/411/dsc00030ec2.jpg http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/7135/dsc00031sg5.jpg http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/4853/dsc00027ik0.jpg http://img478.imageshack.us/img478/3121/dsc00022ad0.jpg http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/2813/dsc00021ms4.jpg http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/3531/dsc00015hv0.jpg http://img468.imageshack.us/img468/3986/dsc00014pm3.jpg update apr 29 Well we went to install the engine today and had nothing but problems.
