Looks like I will have to wait till monday now to try my
20b out, having problems getting the drive shaft made
will have to post a request when i get more info,,,
something about no replacment u joint for the cosmo
shaft end.

matt

 

when i brought it home (changed jobs) i decided to clean some stuff up. so no its not running, but its gonna look like its factory im even playing with the idea of some sort of factory airbox

mike

 

Hmmm I was looking at the air box area and I don't think
there is going to be much room there for anything more
than a cone filter,,, but that's a few days away for me.
worked on wiring routing all evening tonight and there is
still lots more to do,,, guess that gives me something to
do while I wait for the drive shaft..

matt

 

Have 20B in JC Cosmo, ported, big exhaust, filter etc.
Also have 20B in Citreon, yip thats right, but its just in the boot at the moment, will be trial fitting it into our 323 hatch soon.
In Waikato NZ.

 

dude you should put it in the citreon that would be funny.

now: i dunno if it will fit but im going to give it a shot.
it might just be the cover with a cone placed underneath

Where did you get the adapter? Also, how did you mount the starter?

 

Don't have the engine yet to mount a starter on since it is still being built. I think I recall Rob at Pineapple telling me that since the 5-speed is a shift rail type, it would clear the starter. If I need an adapter I can mill one at my shop if there are none available or are to pricy.

I'm sure I'm forgetting something else...custom interior (sound dampening, stereo, alarm, etc.)

Future plans - Full brake kit, Kaaz differential, custom front sway bar, custom driveshaft, wide body kit with the largest rims I can fit for traction purposes, keep turning up the boost and put 720's in the primaries after the traction problems are worked out.

 

Anyone ever concider a t56 transmision to put behind a 20b? some of them are rated up too 750lbs/ft . I know theres is an adapter housing for a 13b..... Just curious.

I can get one cheap to rebuild.

 

Yes, I am considering it. They have rather sloppy shifting, and the models with the .5 6th gear can't handle enough torque, so I would have to use a .62 or .75 6th gear model and an aftermarket rear end. I'm not sure if it would be so great for high revs. It doesn't cost very much, though.

Who sells an adapter?

 

where have you found the prices on those at?
also what would you do with the rear end? use a different one or just make a custom driveshaft?

 

I've asked about the T-56 before and I got the impression that the T-56 could handle the HP and Torque but the really high revs would kill it.

 

The .5 6th gear ones are rated for 550lbs/ft of torque. And I know thats conservative because a friend put one behind somewhat built 454 and hes hard on it.

As far as an adapter there was a thread for one in the 2nd gen forum around the begining of the year I think. I was contemplating one for my NA. I lost the link to the web page when my hard drive crapped out. So I would need to find it again. Hopefully its still in archive if nothing else. Ill try to find it.

 

damn man!! thats alot to type! I would give up and say I put the whole nine yards. holy crap thats good we have a moderater that can type a bajillion words a minute. I'm hoping to get a 20B in the future to put in my corvair. That will be sweet when I do.
