nice work so what paint u using as won't just bubbles off whenyour turbo gets hot

cozzie4d

I use heat resisting paint, but it only resists till 650 degrees )-;
So when my engine's together in a few months, it'll probably melt off.

Cold side of the turbo doesn't get hot mate

Don't paint the exhaust side tho cos u'll gas yourself with the smoke

Maybe a stupid question, but why do people expand their sump with "big wings".
I understand it's to enlarge the capacity, but why?

Filthy Rich

Keeps oil cooler m8 for prolonged thrashing and with it being properly baffled theres always oil where u need it when its getting chucked about in corners

cozzie4d

Okay sounds clear, the more space to spread the oil in, the cooler it can get.
I'll remember that

Also the thing that made it all go together better was the biscuts you got

white cab

nice like the colours makes a change from chrome

Filthy Rich

New clutch ratshite and cable now fitted

Front crankshaft oil seal now fitted

cozzie4d

Looking good m8, 7 liters is quite a lot indeed

Maybe a stupid question but I think you know the answer,
my engine is now completely unmounted into bits, last week I had a part which I thought was the waterpump, today I got my new waterpump but it didn't look the same

It looks a bit like a waterpump and has a pulley too, could this be the powersteering pump?

Filthy Rich

water pump is above pullers in pic below



power steering pump is driven by 1 v belt on the nearside of engine bay

cozzie4d

Thanks m8, what I thought was the waterpump seems to be the power steering pump
At least I have a new waterpump now, it's start

lamb chops

Looks great!! once the rear of mine is sorted i will start on the engine bay

Filthy Rich

lamb chops

looking good & nice Pheasant!! So whats the score with that rear beam setup?

Filthy Rich

PMSL

Was woundering if anyone would spot next weeks dinner

Rear beam is rose jointed and fully adjustable for toe in and camber.
It's by far the best mod i've done to a cosworth
