Well....we've been busy this weekend.....myself, NightDavva & Shorty got stuck into building my engine!!!!
I'll let the pics explain the events....
Few dirty old bits in need of a bit of renovating......
Applied some paint....
Pistons & rods all cleaned up ready...
Fitted into new steel liners together with Ti-Nitride coated rings...
Shorty hard at work....good lad...
Shorty surveys his handiwork.....
Multi-layer slightly thicker uprated headgasket fitted...
Fooods up....
Wonder what happens if we mount the engine in the car this way up....
NightDavva gets jiggy with the gate post....
Fitting the T35 turbo....that caused alot of head scratching....
NightDavva's work of art & craftsmanship.....
Inlet manifold on & taking shape....
And a few all round shots.....
Then it got wrapped up & tucked away ready for the next stint...
Most bolts have been replaced with stainless steel blingy/allen key style jobbies!!!
Just got a few more ancillaries to fit then it can go in - hopefully one evening this week!!!
Only running standard injectors until it gets mapped.
BIG BIG BIG thanks to NightDavva for devoting most of his weekend to helping me & for his pure ingenuity when it comes to making things fit perfectly!!!!
Powerwise.....looking at 300bhp+ once its been mapped!!!
