So i assume this means your adding a turbo too right?

Woot! Two boxes of parts came!
Still waiting on the pistons/rods, and the multitude of bolts.
For some reason only the post office knows, that box is still in transit.
The crank and cam will come latter on once the best mode of transit is found.

So far it looks like I'll be able to work with the turbo oil pump much easier, since it doesn't hang down quite as low in the front, and the pickup is on the back side instead of the bottom.

There's a minimal amount of work that needs to be done to fit it to the NA block, mainly switching out the #1 main bearing retainer, removing the NA pump's drive shaft, and clearancing the front of the block for the chain.

I could do it with the grinder and a steady hand, but I think it will be more interesting to fixture it standing upright in the bridgeport. Big Grin

I'll also need to modify my upper pan's front seal retainer to clear the pump chain and hold the front main seal in it's new location. I made it modular for a reason. Wink

You 616 turbo guys would be able to swap one in as well, but you'll need to find a way to get the second sprocket on the crank. Should be able to have the keyway cut and just move the main seal out. You would need some modification to the harmonic balencer as well.

The oil squirters each need 4 holes drilled, 2 of them reamed, and one of them tapped, in addition to facing off the casting. I'll need to pop the head off to do that properly, so it may wait for a bit.
If the 616 has the needed oil gallery, then they could be added easily.

I still have to get off my @ss and make the templates for the motor mount brackets... cardboard and markers seem so crude when I've been using a CMM and 3D models for so long...

I'm thinking I'll do that today.

Motor mount templates.
[Image: IMG_20110410_220911.jpg]

Ended up just using my knife, no markers, no scissors, no tape measures... I felt like Ogg, the brutal caveman, slashing and cutting to make it work.
Nice to know I can still "get it done" without my comfy assortment of toys, tools, and software.

It'll use stock mitsubishi rubber and stock Mercedes engine side mounts, easiest way to do it.

Going to bend them out of a single sheet to cut down on the welding involved, and make em a bit more rigid.

The final template will be finished in CAD, just so I can easily print out two copies and tweak the angles to ones that make sense.
I also want to throw it in the FEA package and see how it responds to load.

I don't trust that inner-caveman much...

Id say you're still doing ok if you are using cardboard to make a model. Full on caveman would have been to sketch it out with a cigarette butt or blood on some 1/4 inch steel, cut it out with a torch over flammable objects shirtless, then weld that sucker in regardless of accuracy while drunk, high, or both.

Day two would be fix all yesterdays mistakes and make similar sweeping guesses

A few chunks of posts from my main build thread on HRCS, showing the oil pump backing plate build saga...

”300D50” Oh, and here's some oil pump guts!
[Image: IMG_20110412_114515.jpg]


”300D50” Getting there!

[Image: IMG_20110613_140733.jpg]

Still have to mill the outer contour, and make the mating adapter for the aluminum tubing that will be running to the pickup in the back of the sump.

Front half of pump, including pump gears.

Clean with a paper towel and water, dry, then apply a thin-ish bead of Permatex 51813 gasket maker. The manual doesn't specify to do this, but I prefer not to tempt fate.

That was a "I know exactly how you feel!"

A far as the turbo goes... I am no expert and it seems there are two different compressors, but when I looked at the first one that popped up, it looks Nice!

(4500RPM @ 15 lbs Boost)

It should be good for ~ 250HP if the required AR isn't off the map.

Running those calculations right now...
It'd be right at the edge of efficiency at 250HP given worst case scenario.

Oh, and I already bought it, so there's no turning back now... except for within 30 days that is.

I just got burnt out working on the same thing for over 5 years with nothing to show for it.
My brother needs a vehicle, so we're stuffing another V6 back into the red truck since that's all it's ever needed.
Waiting on an ECU/immobilizer/key set, and it'll be on the road in time for fall/winter.

The swap project is being taken over by a friend, using an I4 recipient truck, so not all is lost.
