Always a good sign cheers Earl.

Where did you get them from and how much were they??

Already bore guaged and checked thanks for the tip tho!

Need straight forward prices inc delivery and how long before they will land on my doorstep.

Oh and which ever makes are recommended what headgasket thickness I need to maintain standard compression ratio!!

Thanks

Ok where is the cheapest place I can get some? 86.00mm!

Thanks

Anyone else got any input on this?

So what price do these come at?

Who is the best company for forged pistons and where can i get them cheapest?

Cheers

Looks very much like detonation dude.

If you can afford forgies I would still fit them as it will save you a job later if you plan for more ponies!!

Will save you having to re-strip you lump down at a later date.

Need to order a head gasket do I order a rev 3 or a rev 1 and anyone got pics of what needs to be modified to make the rev 3 head fit rev 1 block?

Can anyone tell me for 2 points will the rev 3 headgasket fit the rev 1 block?

If your going down the route I'm going down then the rev1/2 fuel rail is not compatable with the rev3 head.






Current mission rev 3 head fitted to rev 1 block!!

Oh dear!

So I need a rocker cover!
A fuel rail!
And the flow should be better without the tvis in the way then!! Cool.

Ok so far i have most of the bits i need sourced.

Just wanted to know will the rev 1 rocker cover fit the rev 3 head?

looks to me like it wont!

Also will the rev 1 fuel rail fit the rev 3 head?

Not sure!

Also does the rev 3 head have the same tvis/vsv setup as the rev 1 heads?

Cheers

Yeah the oil check dipstick.
Your downpipe will probably be bolted staright on at the turbo then again at the mid section.

Undoing it at the turbo can be a bit fiddly! Not a bad job tho.

Oh yeah might be wise to take similar sized spanners with you mate and to get your downpipe off you will need a 10mm to undo the dipstick with.

What type of downpipe is it?

Ramps should be fine mate did mine on axel stands first time then had it off again after running for a while to change the manifold which I did on a proper lift at work was a bit easier.

Should be fairly easy if you already have an aftermarket exhaust fitted you should just need a ratchet, some extensions and some sockets if you take 10,12,13,14,16,17mm sockets you should have most of it covered at that. Start with the 3 bolts from your downpipe (exhaust side of the engine). Then un...

Think I got it nailed thanks mate I bought a head the other day thinkin it was a rev2 head but its actually a rev 3 so need to do some converting to fit it to my rev 1 block!

Have you got your car mapped up properly yet? not seen it at awtracksport for a mapping session!

Hi guys looks like i'm off down this line.

What is the issue with the cambelts?

Why does the headgasket need drilling for the water ways? Will a rev 3 head gasket not fit a rev 1 block?

Also will the rev 1 inlet fit on a rev 3 head?

Is there anythings else involved?


Thanks Guys

Rev3 head to T3/4 turbo footprint?
