impressive build!

 

The coolant hoses are -16 and I finally got my motor and brake back from paint. Let me know wat u guys think of the color

 

i dont think the turbo is big enough.... 0_o

 

Color looks real good.

 

Ballin!!!

 

you should tig a little tiny heat shield onto the vband of that front wastegate. it's going to get COOKED being surrounded by red hot exhaust runners like that.

 

P/p =-)

 

Looks clean!

 

Spent some time in the garage today making some brake lines. Sould have all of the tuck done in the next couple weeks.

 

May i ask y you didnt delete the booster?

 

Ive drive a car with manuel brake before and I just didnt like the way it felt

 

Ah alright.

 

Quick pic of the brakes.

 

Brake lines look great! Good call on keeping the booster. Biggest thing I regret when I did mine.

Finished up the brake lines in the bay tonight.

 

I love the color! Every car I work on has the "green" (Tahitian green in my case) for its engine bay.

👍👍👍

 

Just read through the whole build. Great work man; very impressive metal work! I have never seen a bay so clean!

 

Not sure if anyone mentioned it before, but I would reconsider that fan shroud if I were you.

This design works great when you stand still and the elec fan needs to do all the work, but when you're driving, the airflow wouldn't be as good true the rad compared to one without a shroud or with a shroud that has some extra openings in them. Some stock cars have extra openings with a rubber flap on them so air can pass true while driving.

Don't forget these engines get very hot.

For the rest of the build, nice work!

 

Looking really good. You have definitely put a lot of thought into this process.

So is it possible to flip the booster canister over to feed the vacuum line closer to the bellhousing?

 

Yes it is possible and thats prob wat im hona be doing.

 

So got the motor put together this weekend. A lot Of help from mike at unique precision rotary llc. Here we had all the pieces layed out and the rotars preped.







and the stacking begins



First rotor and housing installed





Second housing and rotor and studs in



Torquing the studs down



End played checked and everything was good.



Front cover on



Studs in for the oil pan

 

Motor mounts and oil pan and brace are on. Just waiting for after market mounts.



All the bushings came in today also. So the motor sould be going back un this weekend. Im thinking in bout 6 months I sould be ready to start this thing.

 

Put the clutch on the motor its really starting to look like something now.

 

Love this work!

 

I made my mount for my coils yesterday. I think it turned out pretty good just need to get a lot of little things powder coated.

Brain storming



End result



Mounted in the car



Motor and tranny are back in the car. I only need to buy a few more things and with tax time coming up think I will have it all. Im really shooting for the car to be running in about 4 months.
