as told to me on the cosmetic side, it looks like as but as least my motor is getting enough attention.

 

wow, sounds fast

 

thanks

 

quick question, any reason the block guard is at the same heigh as the deck? I've heard that it should be pushed down slightly, so water can fill a little at the top. Also, when it goes down about a half inch, it rests on pieces of metal(for lack of a better description). This prevents it from sinking all the way, but I doubt these things would ever move because they fit quite snug. on the whole build looks badass...

Ha, same here...my car looks like **** but the motor is getting doused in money. Hopefully I'll have a new windscreen and paint by NOPI. *crosses fingers*

man when that blockguard was being placed in it was so hard to get down much more than what you see. there are grooves in it that allows for the coolant.

 

Sweet, I like. But where the rest of your mods in your list? Like your turbo parts?

jmagner- It looks like he has a STR blockguard in there and they say it should be tapped in a 1/8th of a inch down the water jacket.

I'm guessing stock sleeves

 

wait...so ur running mugen headers on an FI car? i'm guessing it is FI w/ the 9.8 compression, but why are u running headers then?

 

 

i sure hope he had it layin around and is just using it to break the motor in.

 

If he's posting in the FI forum, I'd think its a turbo build up. I dont get why it wasn't sleeved however. I'd think after all those parts + trouble, you may as well start with a solid foundation.

HEADER....

 

You did install the blockguard BEFORE you had it bored correct?.. And again header??

 

Yes, he could be using a header- There is another form of FI.....Don't forget about babies and their BOTTLES!

I am not sure in this case, but its the only way it makes sense

P.S. Nice flywheel, i have loved mine!!

Yeah the GE blockguard required alot of filing before it had a tight fit with slight tapping.

 

The headers are for the break in period. i posted here because im going to putting on a turbo kit soon
