after getting started with the rest of the bolt on mods i was looking for the next level of tuning.
headwork is an option, if i sell the charger i hope to have enough to pay for it!
"there aint no replacement for displacement"
looked into the Kia sedona hoping to find some parts that i could use but didnt really find anything of use, so i thought id do it myself.
KV6 is just a pair of 3 cylinder K4's. so i got myself some 82mm liners..
82's on the left..
82's on the right..
set about fitting them to the v6 block..
with those and a std crank it would give me 2624cc (up 127cc) not bad increase, the K4's seem to do well on +100.
but i thought i could do better?! so i stroked the crank to 87.8mm (from 82.8)
i dont have a pic, it still looks like a std crank
87.8 crank and 82 bore gives me 2782cc
needed to fill the rest of the parts in, so got myself some forged rods..
and some high comp forged pistons..
sold my lightweight steel flywheel to get another lightwheight steel flywheel!!
the new one has 220 turbo clutch fittings (the clutch cover dowels are smaller and in slightly different place.) and im going to get myself a kevlar clutch to go with it.
im making an aluminium bottom pully to replace the steel one.
with that ill be ready to balance it all and start building the bottom end up
