Sounds like progress Phil....have you bought a set of forged pistons yet though....?

Have you had it running yet? It looks great, I'm sure it's gonna be a beast!!

OK...shopping list: Take off plate and top hat http://www.jjcraceandrally.com/race/sandwich-plates/mocal-take-off-plate-for-3-4unf-male-tapped-1-2bsp-2 Compact remote oil filter plate http://www.jjcraceandrally.com/race/sandwich-plates/mocal-compact-remote-filter-head 4 fittings http://www.jjcracean...

Cool beans, I'll put together a list tomorrow

I've just removed this from my 5S engine, which would be a bolt on for you: - Mocal sandwich plate with side feed entrance/ exit take off plate (bolts onto block) - 2 x AN10 fittings for take off plate - 2 x AN10 stainless braided lines with straight hose ends one end, and 90 dgree fittings other en...

What revision engine do you have?

Does it come the right way up, or is it specifically for Auzzie cars?

Good stuff

Goo stuff

It really doesn't need to flow much gas to allow the engine to idle, so a small pipe should be fine- but remember if you are plumbing it into the pipework it will need to be capable of sealing in whatever boost pressure is in there...so maybe vacuum pipes aren't the best idea, I'd go for some decent...

The stock IACV system does seem to be a boost leak in the making, but if you plumbed it into your pipework upstream of the turbo (i.e. just before or after the charge cooler), then that would illiminate any potential leak. I had the IACV mounted directly on my old inlet manifold- definitely an optio...

Your ECU has aux outputs, so assuming it can deal with the current requirements, and has enough spare outputs....you should be able to set up DBW, but for your specific install it might be a ball ache as it is designed to be plug and play with the stock car...so new wires, and changing the ECU strat...

We sectioned two rev3 blocks, and a rev1 block (and a rev 3 NA head)...I've probably still got them stashed away somewhere in Dad's workshop- next time I'm there I'll have a look. I don't think I had one with any extra material around the water pump though... The inconsistency in the cylinder walls ...

Late 5S block is the one to go for if you want to give it some serious stick, the whole block is far meatier when put side by side with any 3S block, and the increase in bore size is nice as well- even if you use a 3S crank and keep it at ~2l. There are supposed to be later 3S blocks, rev5 and possi...

We'll see how long that view lasts

Good stuff Phil, I assume you mean Chris Isles's old car? Will be good to see it with a decent power plant in it again

Mk I,II or III or are we looking at something blue with an extra couple of pistons in it
