Well its been a while since i updated anything so here goes.
Things moving along nicely, not fast due to work and lack of funds as always
Old 180 Rad was beginning to fall apart so replaced with alloy Nissan unit but it needed a bit of work to fit.
Lighter FLCA. From a civic but needed machining to accept the tapered MG ball joints:
GearBox:
Has been rebuilt but ATB has been replaced with a Gripper Unit, plus a few tart up bits.
Front End starting to go back together:
Engine:
stripped and off to have the whole lot balanced to new pistons:
Basic tests to head showed something was indeed not good!
report from Head guy was bent inlets, worn guides on inlet and exhaust causing exhaust valves to not seat any more.
Head still being done at mo but this time its having:
Uprated supertech exhuast valves
new inlets
new guides
recut seat
ported and flowed.
Bottom end pretty much back together, just waiting for head then the whole lot can go back in once bay has brake lines etc fitted.
The Qpeng ECU has been dumped in favour of something more conventional.
More to Follow :-)
