Nice work Mark!

I'll have to find time to make my way over to your place and check out the work first hand. :)

I need some motivation!


Just tell me when you want to stop over!

I welded the v-band flange to the merge collector last night. V-bands are awesome; they align the turbo to the collector perfectly. I rough ported the collector, still needs refining.

Good progress today, assembled the 2.3 motor today. MAP built up my head too, with Kiggley springs and retainers, new MAP SS valves with bronze guides. This thing is going to be fun!

Just finished cleaning up the merge collector.

Then I modified the crank scraper & windage tray due to the stroked motor.

What did you use to clean up the merge collector?

Do those motors come stock with a scraper and windage tray?

A die grinder with a flapper wheel. I got the wheels at Northern Tools, 2.50 each. The scraper and windage tray come with the AMS oil pan kit.

Damn things are really scootin' along Mark! Are you going to get the motor back in the car to mock up the rest of the turbo setup or what's the plan?

Thanks, I'm trying trying to learn the ways and I appreciate it.
