Yes, the engine is in and running well :)

T.O.O claimed 25psi on his Z6 block using this method, thats properly tunned with 850cc injectors

My oil feed line setup... No comment, heh, its kinda lame, I do a double split off the back of the block for the head/turbo.

Can you weld the posts? Honestly, I wouldnt.. use the epoxy because it can seal the threads the same time when you put them in, remember your only torqueing this things finger tight.

3/8 from the top? In some of your pics it looks like you put the holes about 3 inches from the top

I took the 101 class with this post, but not sure what ut is meant for. I must no nothingabout cars. My question is, does it help save the engine? OR does it help with performance?


Also Jeff I have been gone from the forum for about 2 months now and I was wondering if there is a post about the ZC you built. (meaning what you did)

Re:Block Posting 101 w/ Jeff Frank
 

This just helps the sleeves (aid) if any type of detonation was to occur, this would support the sleeves so they wouldnt crack/distort.

Built ZC is gone.. I sold it yesterday, lol

Re:Block Posting 101 w/ Jeff Frank
 

Are there also benifits to doing this to a block witch is not built? Does this make it where the block can hold more PSI? Do you reconmend doing this to any block when mods have been performed?

Re:Block Posting 101 w/ Jeff Frank
 

nice. informative. good job.

Re:Block Posting 101 w/ Jeff Frank
 

Jeff's b20 block was not built at all, its a bone stock block... it just helps support the cylinder walls under detonation...

Re:Block Posting 101 w/ Jeff Frank
 

Do I need to get the same material for the pins or I could use regular alloy pins and epoxy the pins after?

Re:Block Posting 101 w/ Jeff Frank
 

Update, dont use JB weld, I have a slight leak on #1 cylinder, GRRR!!!!

Abaz:
I don't know if you're seeing what I'm seeing but I've seen this posted on other forums and people are blasting it. This was back when you first posted this. I'm sure they're just dumb F ***'s that tried to do it them selves and not knowing what to do drilled a hole straight threw their piston walls and blamed it on the idea. Just woundering if you've seen the same thing.
