Re: My "minimalist" turbo crx **VIDEO ADDED!**
Just a quick update. Over the course of the few months this has been together, I decided to swap in a crower stg. 2 N/A cam. I left the dizzt right where it was(didn't even remove it) and swapped rocker assemblies as well. Well... Apparently the notch on the dizzy side was machined very off from the d15z1 cam, and that led to HUGE timing advance. About 15 degrees, huge. Needless to say, I busted ringlands.
Out came the old, and in went a refreshed d15b bottom end. Same head, same everything. It's now running about 11psi, and is pretty wicked. I'll make another video soon. The other night, a few buddies and our wives went out to a new steakhouse on the outskirts of town. I decided to park out front, in front of a parking-barrier(fancy word for log) and tapped it. My wife asked if I broke anything, and I sad, no no. Well, we get ready to leave, I drive down the road, and water temp is up toward 225*F. I shut it down and get out to find my radiator taking a leak. So, I got another, and installed it, and it runs very well. I'm going to give the cam another shot, here, in the next month or two, after a baseline run out in bakersfield. Thanks for the tips, JD, I've incorporated them carefully. -josh- |
