Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
I changed my valve cover venting from 2 –an8’s to a catch can with a single little filter. I was filling the catch can up with oil. From empty to overflowing in one pass! I added a HLA, plugged the vents in the valve cover and drilled a new hole in the back of the head for an –an16 fitting. The machining pictures are of my new stage 5 MAP head.

Yea the pictures were taken with my phone, it must be how they were loaded into the Photobucket’s phone app. I just hacked android on my HD2 this week, I’m new to the droid world. The car should be running in two-three weeks, and ready for the track in the beginning of May. This winter has been a busy one. |
Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
Nice work Mark, LOVE this car!
Still have my old red 1g as a winter beater? :) |
Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
Glad to see someone knows how to use real tools. Bridgeport ftw.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
Makes me sad people have hit it, I don't get how careless and clueless people can be sometimes lol. Yea, lets just back out of our driveway without taking advantage of the mirrors and turning my head to see what is behind me.
Car was damn clean for 250k on the clock minus the rust on the driver side rear quarter panel. Keep us updated on this blue beast and maybe I'll see you at Cedarvale again! |
Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
Great work Mark!! I'm doing the same thing to my head with the -16 right there! Maybe I could swing by and you could tap my head for a fee??? :D

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
Nice progress since I seen it.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
It's done. I drove it about 50 miles this weekend. Everything is great, no issues. Exhaust sounds rowdy,) a lot deeper note. Cannot tell if there is any turbo spool difference. Saw 30 Psi @ 5700, that's where it was set for the first drive.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
My buddy sent me a picture text of under the hood of your car at that dyno day deal on saturday. I laughed when he sent it to me. I'm like hey I know that guy. Magnus told me hes a d-bag ;)

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
Dyno numbers?

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
Got any bigger pics of that sweet catch can?
|
Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
Can't wait to see the finished product in person. That engine bay looks clean enough to eat off of.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
Just took a catch can and engine bay pic.
[IMG]http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/p...ebay2011-1.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/p...CatchCan-1.jpg[/IMG] I took the car back out today, turned up the boost to 35psi and got the AFR's dialed in further. I took my wife out for a ride and did a 3-4 gear pull. The car is fing fast, and after I got out of the gas I looked over at her to find that she was crying. She told me that she doesn’t want to ride in the car ever again. My bad. |
