Motor torn down and at machine shop


Recommended Posts

Well after scrapping the RB idea as it would have killed my budget and the Trust twin turbo kit not fitting as it's made for a RHD (It's for sale now check classifieds), I'm back to using the parts and motor that I have had on hand for the last 5 years.

Here is what I'm having the machine shop do:

Block

• Clean/Inspect

• Bore/ Hone “as needed”

• Remove phillips screws for block vent screen

• R&R Freeze Plugs

• Magnaflux Main Bearing Bolts 14

• Clean Front Cover and Oil Filter Mounting Plate

• Remove Flywheel Keys

• Clean Oil Pan

Crank

• Clean Polish/Balance

• Pull Torque Adapter Plate

• Remove Crank Bolt

• Remove torque plate adapter on tail of crank

• Remove Pilot Shaft Bushing

Rods

• Race Prep “balance, magnaflux, peened,

polished

Pistons Forged Wisco

• Balance

Head

• Clean/ Inspect

• Return for Porting by owner (I may consider Sun Belt for the porting)

• Valve Job

• Remove Locating Dowel

Induction

• Custom Intake Manifold

• RC 550cc Injectors

• JSK Fuel Rail

• Custom Exhaust Manifold

• Precision GT Turbo

• Custom 3 Core Intercooler

Engine Management

• TEC 3 or SDS

Motor Accessories

• Wisco Forged Pistons

• NISMO Adjustable Cam Sprocket

• NISMO Crank Dampner

• Schneider Cam Lift(In/Ex): .460/.460. Duration(In/Ex): 270/260

• Manley Valves

• Clevite Bearing

• ARP Head/Rod Bolts

• HKS 2mm Head Gasket

Well this is what I have so far to get me started. My goal is for 400RWHP.

Fabrication will be done by Tempest Racing http://tempestracing.com in Waldorf MD.

Questions, comments feel free to fire away. I will be ordering all the rebuild parts this week from MSA i.e. gasket set, timing chain kit, cam, ARP fasteners to name a few...

I'm so stoked to get this started FINALLY!!!

I will get pics of the motor when I dropped it off at the machine shop uploaded tonight..

Good solid groundwork goin' on there Joe. Won't 400rwhp need some serious boost?..Keep us up to date, it will be interesting.

What Is The Avatar A Corvair With A Spoiler ?????????/

WHAAT? Geez Gary , I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when I read that! :laugh: ....but I can see what you mean. I quite liked the Yenko Stingers, but I'm sure Joe won't mind me throwing this in to clear it up for you.

Jim.

What! dont you know a skyline when your looking at one! :ermm:

Couldn't tell me how much the crank weighs, since your engine is dissasembled could you? Been trying to find an approximate weight of a crank(LD28) so I can estimate shipping costs to Australia from overseas.

Corvair ROFLLOL

That would be a 1970 Nissan Skyline GT-R (not mine of course). This is my dream sports car to own of all time.

Thanks Jim. I'm guesstimating 25 pounds max boost with 10-15 on the street. My C/R should be around 7.99:1-8.16:1

I'm only guessing I would say it was between 20-30 pounds. I'm stopping by the machine shop tonight, if he has a scale I can weigh it for you.
