Hi guys !

Here is a pregnant garage with a nice baby almost ready to go out



Before to have this one, I had another baby which I loved a lot









But on an icy winter, sideways have been to closed of the car...





So, I took off everything from the car : engine, gearbox, all interior parts and think about the future...

I'm sorry, but it has been impossible to take off the wheel in the trunk

So, few months after I bought a new 2wd, it was a car which wasn't running a lot, but I used it every weekend, changed all sensors and hoses, it was starting to run pretty well, but on a beautiful autumn day, the head gasket decided to blown on a straight line at 120mph...

Then, it was a good time to rebuild the old engine from my first 2wd, and put it in this one.

So I took the dead one out



and started to rebuild with the following specs :

Bloc 205
Bottom end balanced
Big wing sump + sump baffle
All ARP studs (crankshaft, con rods, head)
Cosworth pistons 7.2
High Pressure oil pump
Cometic head gasket
Head polished and enlarged
New valves and guides
BD10 and BD14 + double springs +vernier pulleys
Plenum AutoSpecialists
Injectors Siemens 83lb
Turbo T4 RS500
ProAlloy RS500 intercooler
ProAlloy water radiator
ProAlloy turbo after cooler


Bloc skimmed and piston-bore gap of 0.1mm lol it will smoke















I also did the plastigage for crankshaft and conrods, and I've been very happy about it as I have 0.05mm for every one



















The only thing now is that I have the piston going out of 1.04mm from the bloc because I skimmed it three times in the way to have a good surface aspect...Damn I will have to put a thick head gasket in the way to have a good squish
