Nor*Cal what did you do to your car recently?

[wed3k]

lol, i am going to see if i can get pictures of these stock pistons i polished up via wire wheel.

[wed3k]

check rod bearings
replaced front and rear crank seals
replaced oil pan gasket
about to ship my cam to delta (i get special pricing )






put about a 6 degree angle on the runners for itb's

is that the engine you picked up from blacktrax?

yup, just waiting on camshaft for clearances and then i can slap the entire thing together and give eric his F20.

just need to weld the runners, been waiting like 3 years now for that to happen

i dont think the brake master is going to be a problem. ill just use braided line for the two hard lines that go from master to prop valve. i have a couple other things to do meanwhile such as TPS, throttle linkage and other sensors. the F22 relies on so many idle based items, it is hard to make it kind of a stand alone setup. it needs the IACV but im hoping i can bypass that somehow. i have to tune the itb's like individual carburetors and allow enough air in so i can get it to idle since i am ditching the IACV and there is no idle setting like on a f22 throttle body.

272 cam because MRX have basemaps for it, this isnt my crazy engine, just something to last me through the year while i beat the living shit out of it.

don't forget to get the measurements of everything for the itb.

don't forget to get the measurements of everything for the itb.

the real only important measurement is the air horns to the back of the intake valve. this is determining the air pulses and which one would be adequate for my power band. however this can be changed with the rubber couplers and air horns so im not too worried about that. once we have that down, we can begin designing the nylon composite prototypes.

getting my bitch tuned today!

Wes is doing it big. The true person to say:
"SOHC on this!"

nothing to brag about yet, it's just a stock rebuild with a 272 cam. im just trying to get out and race the damn thing!

i still have a lot of work to do to the car itself and im also planning on getting a wagon so i can haul around more shit. so ill be fixing and modding that as well. the process never ends.

[H23 Lude]

got 2 BT spacers.

got 2 BT spacers.

howd the tune go?

[H23 Lude]

howd the tune go?

made 128whp, thinking it has to do with the intake mainfold so im adding the spacers to see if changes anything. Right now i have the plenum right on the runners so im thinking that's the problem. I picked up my clutch will post pics soon

Edit:
Forgot to mention did a compression test and it was between 195-200 on all 4 cylinders.
